Beginner's Guide to Crochet: 20 Crochet Projects for Beginners by Sarah Shrimpton

Beginner's Guide to Crochet comprehensively teaches all the basic crochet techniques, skills and stitches to get someone started. Each new technique is explained with accompanying photographs and diagrams and is followed directly with a project using those skills.
Later projects combine several techniques and stitches encouraging the reader to develop their skill set even further. The 20 projects include a cafetiere cosy, trellis scarf, teddy bear, a tablet cosy and of course, no
crochet book would be complete without the staple granny blanket. Plus a section dedicated to 'extreme crochet', using t-shirt yarn to create larger-than-life crocheted creations.
