Crochet Stitches by Carol Meldrum features a wonderful collection of 25 basic crochet patterns designed for the new crocheter. Inside, you'll find trendy crocheted accessories, practical patterns you can use in your daily life, and a nice collection of quick gifts to crochet.

Projects range in type from accessories, home decor, wearables and more. It's nearly impossible to pick favorites inside this book, but a few personal favorites of mine include the Cobweb Lace Gloves, Sloppy Joe Beret, Chunky Chevron Hooded Scarf, the Alpine Hat, and the White Star Throw. Also, the Jam Jar Covers are great to add to canned gifts such as homemade jam, cookie mix, and more.

Large color photos and detailed instructions make this a great book for any beginner to have. Not only are the instructions easy to read and understand, but there's also a section at the beginning of the book that goes over the basics of all the beginning steps you need to get started. Perfecting your skills in crochet has never been so easy! If you're new to the craft, we definitely recommend adding this book to your collection today.
