Leisure ArtsAran Afghans to Crochet

Patterns are beautiful, but book is American terminology, which I didn’t know when I ordered it. It makes working with it slow and prone to mistakes. Wrote patterns out with English terminology to use it in the end. Think Amazon should specify whether books are English or USA terminology on UK site

This is a very good book. I am not an experienced crocheter but decided to have a go at one of the lovely patterns and by following the instructions bit by bit I am really pleased with myself to see the pattern emerging.I feel very inspired to move on to another pattern and even try and mix and match some of the patterns.I would certainly recommend this book to all abilities.

I have nearly finished my first Afghan blanket - the Tan Sampler. It is looking fantastic, did it in a mustard colour. Bonnie Barker's patterns are very easy to understand and lots of diagrams of the stitches used. Being left-handed I found her UTube tutorials for lefties so very helpful. Wish UTube had been around when I taught myself to crochet many moons ago! Already planning on the next project - The one on front cover.

Should have checked if American or English instructions! Beautiful Afghanis but a lot of transcribing

Can't wait to start some of the lovely afghans in this book.

Beautiful illustrations.

Repetitive patterns. 5 patterns in the booklet but all just a combination of the same stitches. Nice but dIsappointing overall.

A very thin paperback but with some lovely patterns. Quick delivery
