4.0 out of 5 stars Easy Crochet, Sep 1 2011

This review is from: 7-Day Afghans (Paperback)

I bought this book some years ago but still use it today. I have made several items from the book. It is clear, concise and easy to follow. The pictures are great but I would have like to see the colour pictures next to the patterns. Flipping back and forth isn't fun. And sometimes, you need to see the picture to have the pattern make sense. All in all, it's a great book with some worthwhile projects for both the new crocheter and the more experienced one.

4.0 out of 5 stars Look past the outdated color combos...., July 10 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: 7-Day Afghans (Paperback)

Yes, the colors in some of these afghans pretty much scream "late 70's early 80's", but if you can look past that and visualize some of these patterns in currently available yarns, there are some gems here. Easy, classic patterns. I crocheted the "Desert Sands" pattern for my 6yo daughter using a bright, rainbow variegated yarn from Red Heart and it came out beautifully, so much so that her younger sister wants a matching one! Some really great patterns here for beginners. Worth having in your pattern library.

3.0 out of 5 stars A little bit outdated for me, Dec 30 2002

This review is from: 7-Day Afghans (Paperback)

I was excited by the other reviews and bought the book, but I'm dissapointed with the 70's and 80's look of these afghans. The black and white photos do help to picture other color schemes you might like to try after seeing the colors presented in the middle of the book.
