2.0 out of 5 stars Bulky designs, February 2, 2004

By	"bubbables" (Upper Darby, PA USA) - See all my reviews

I pre-ordered this book hoping it would provide lots of ideas and inspiration. The designs are bulky and blocky, and I have two boys and I would not put them in any of these designs. I own the Lesley Stanfield and Betty Barnden books and love them.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great book on new crochet styles!!, January 30, 2004

By	"rosahsuean" (Canada) - See all my reviews

Wow, I loved this book at the first sight, believe or not. And it turned out as one of the best book I like to use all the time. It has an equal amount of boys' wears as girls', so I could make them for my son and daughter. The instruction and material list are quite clear and simple to follow on this book, and most of all, you can just find any yarn to make those cute outfits for the little ones. Great book!!

5.0 out of 5 stars not just another crochet baby book, but a COOK book too !!!, October 17, 2003

By	Marybeth Charles "LovelyThingsbyCapableHands.com" (Buffalo, NY United States) - See all my reviews

the gr888 thing about this book is that it uses a variety of the newer and sometimes chunkier yarns in its projects. if you know a little about guage and crochet, then it is easy to extrapolate YOUR yarn into a very similar project or pattern and get WONderful results !!! it is often very hard or expensive to duplicate the yarns used in these books, so having the schematics in this book HELPS a lot too. i am very glad i bought this book, as i do lots of crochet for children for my shop, Lovley Things by Capable Hands.
there are projects in here for toddlers as well, and many of the patterns come multi-sized. as far as i am concerned, THIS is the best book out there for babies and toddlers !!!
