This review is from: Crochet Designs for Kids: 20 Projects to Make for Girls & Boys (Hardcover)
I ordered this book as soon as I saw it was coming out. I was glad I did, it has the cutest designs for kids. The only drawbacks are 1) the sizing is only 2-6 and 2) there are more designs for girls than boys. That is actually not a drawback for me because I have two girls, but for those who are looking for things to crochet for boys, there are 3 in this book. They are very cute, but unless you have girls to make things for it might not be worth it to you.

For Kids or For Girls?,
By Yankee2NY (USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Crochet Designs for Kids: 20 Projects to Make for Girls & Boys (Hardcover)
This should have been called "Crochet Designs for Girls" with a couple of boy's projects thrown in. Not very helpful to someone like me, who has 3 boys and no girls.

Less than inspiring for me,

This review is from: Crochet Designs for Kids: 20 Projects to Make for Girls & Boys (Hardcover)
Really disappointed with this book. It is the first one I have ever sent back! There was nothing in it I would make. After crocheting many other interesting and different patterns for adults and kids, these patterns were not for me. The book seemed more about the art work and cute illustrations than the actual patterns. Would not recommended it over the numerous other books available today.
