2.0 out of 5 stars '80's Retro, May 16, 2002

By	Debra A. Cook (Pittsburg, CA United States) - See all my reviews

I purchased this book thinking the patterns were recent. These patterns could be considered vintage or early 80's retro. It's great if that's what you're looking for. I was disappointed.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great Scrap Yarn Vest, February 9, 2001

By	Rhonda Berg (Ovid, MI United States) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Have small amounts of leftover yarn in various colors? I made the scrap yarn vest in this book and I love it! I am planning to make another one with more scrap yarn to give as a gift. It uses basic stitches in an interesting way to create nice color contrasts. Beginners can do this project, and advanced crocheters will also enjoy it.

The other patterns in this book are okay - nothing really strikes my fancy, but they don't look difficult to make.
