Booklist (American Library Assiciation)
In her second book, popular English YouTuber Fragola showcases a variety of fun and interesting crochet stitches. In addition to the general introductory guidelines on yarn and basic techniques, the author includes an anatomy-of-a stitch section. This section should be bookmarked when crocheters work on some of the more advanced stitches that require working within an area beyond the top loops. The stitch library features 75 stitches ranging from beginner stitches to fun, simple stitch combinations to the more complicated textured stitches. Each stitch pattern includes a clear photograph, a skill level, stitches used, pattern notes, and instructions. U.S. crochet terminology is used, with British terms in italics within brackets. After the stitch library, 25 patterns are given for squares and other shapes as well as five borders. The book ends with patterns for three projects—a wrap, a tote and a blanket—that utilize some of the stitches detailed in the book. The range of stitches is impressive, and libraries looking to replace older or worn crochet-stitch guides should consider this one. — Lynnanne Pearson
