More About the Author

"There isn't often a day when you won't find me without a crochet hook or my knitting needles in my hands! Turning these loves into a full-time career that fulfills my desire for creativity is like a dream come true."

Kim Guzman is a knit and crochet pattern designer. She writes a variety of patterns including garments, home decor, accessories and gift items.

Kim has authored 9 books on crochet, all published by DRG Publications. 6 of these books are in the interesting Tunisian crochet technique. Tunisian crochet offers Kim more flexibility in her designing due to its unique look, which can mimic knitting or weaving, depending on the stitches used while still maintaining crochet's ease.

Her latest book, Learn to Do Tunisian Lace Stitches, includes an interactive DVD, making it an excellent resource for learning! It's as though you are in a special, one-on-one class with the author.

3.0 out of 5 stars Book is nice, DVD is semi good, March 25, 2010
This review is from: Learn to Do Tunisian Lace Stitches (Book & DVD) (Annie's Attic: Crochet) (Paperback)
This is a small project book with 10 items to crochet. The book is clear and easy to follow. The DVD has hesitation glitches and also some focus issues that are distracting. The envelope that contains the DVD is near the middle of the book, making browing through the book difficult...it would have been nice if there would have been a DVD pocket on the front or read page. All the items are made of light worsted or worsted weight yarn...many items would have been prettier made in a lighter weight yarn, giving a more lacy effect. I highly recommend a tunisian crochet hook with a flexible cord in place of the more old fashioned straight, solid hook.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Book, September 18, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Learn to Do Tunisian Lace Stitches (Book & DVD) (Annie's Attic: Crochet) (Paperback)
I am just learning Tunisian Crochet and I found this book to be a valuable resource. The description of stitches and general instructions in the book are very clear. The photo step-by-step descriptions are very clear. I can't wait to make the swirls baby afghan for my new granddaughter. I love all of the patterns and can see that I am going to be wearing a lot of shawls in the near future.

I'm also thinking of making scarfs from some of the stitch patterns. An easy way to learn the stitches and make Christmas presents.

I'm in love with the DVD. It makes everything so much clearer. Reading is great, but moving pictures of any technique are wonderful. I found the video to be very professional and filmed in a manner that allows the viewer to get a clear picture of each of the stitches and stitch patterns. The videos are precise and slow enough for the viewer to see exactly how the stitch is made.

As an aside, I'm in love with the photography in this book. I find it to be tasteful, opulent and gorgeous. It makes the book a pleasure to view and read.
