Classic Crochet the Modern Way (Tove Fevang)

Take hold of a regular or Tunisian crochet hook and a ball of yarn, and you're well on your way to making something beautiful that is uniquely your own. In this book, you'll find large projects such as afghans, pillows, pretty scarves, and baby blankets, as well as small projects like guest towels, potholders, bags, and crochet hook case. There are projects for those who have crocheted for a while and projects for beginners. An excellent "crochet school" at the back of the book offers step-by-step instructions and photos for all the stitches used in the book.
