Donna Kooler's Encyclopedia of Crochet.
By: Donna Kooler.

The book is divided into three major sections: 1. History of crocheting and other basics information. 2. Different crochet projects. 3.Crochet patterns gallery.
The strongest features of the book:

• Comprehensive presentation of various crochet techniques, from the very basic to advanced.
• The stitch charts and photos are first rate.
• Each instruction page has two columns of illustrations, one for right-handed people and one for left-handed people.
• Crochet patterns have both abbreviation descriptions and graphical charts.
• Detailed information on the abbreviations and chart symbols used in crochet patterns.
• The stitch patterns library certainly worth attention of any level crocheters. It is well classified and has excellent charts and descriptions.

The book has anything and everything you'd ever need to know about classical crocheting techniques, but don't expect to find a lot of modern crochet projects there. There are much better sources to check for them. A definite must have for your needlework library. One of the best crocheting books.
