Yes, there are a lot of advertisements, but many more beautiful patterns. Clothing, toys, home decor, afghans... There is a little bit of everything for all crocheters from beginner to extremely advanced (I'm not quite there yet!)
I strongly encourage the purchase of this book!

Easy to read and follow patterns for over 80 projects. Lots of colorful pictures and great ideas.

From a crocheted wedding dress to crafty crocheted hangers to afghans to lacy pillowcase edgings this book is jammed full.

I didn't find the yarn ads that intrusive - in fact I had to flip back through the book after reading a previous review to see what she was talking about.

If you like crocheting different things this is a great source of ideas and patterns.

This book is in the form of a years worth of crochet magazines. There are special items for all four seasons, as well as items such as wedding gowns and baby afghans that do not fit into any particular season.

Yes, there are some advertisements in it, but the ads are few and far between. What is important here is the wealth of crochet talent gathered to make this book great - such folks as Darlasims, Melissa Leapman, Carol Alexander and Nancy Brown, just to name a few.

So if you'd like to have a chance to browse thru a whole year's worth of crochet patterns, this is the book for you. That way you might be spared that all nighter on Christmas Eve trying to finish up that one last gift.

Well-rounded basics, in a large format8x11, with a good variety of clothes, heirloom-style, accessories and crafts also for the more sophisticated needler.Stitch explanations are very clear.As other reviewers, you take one thing from here, another there, simplify or expand, and meld them together.Some ad pages include patterns and ideas. Cannot overcome fact this +10years old, but basic enough not to be dated or updated as needed.

A very disappointing book, containing mnay adverts for yarns. Does contain a good wedding dress and cardigan pattern. The Aran bobble hat is quite a useful pattern
