30 Gifts in 30 Days

Bendy Carter has been crocheting since she the age of nine. A full-time crochet designer and minister's wife, Carter's designs have been featured on the front cover of magazines 18 times in the last four years. To date, hundreds of her patterns have been published in magazines, free leaflets and purchased by yarn companies, she has written more than a dozen crochet books, and has even designed for celebrities.

This book gets straight into the 30 projects without any pre-amble. The projects are graded for ability. You can clearly see the materials needed and the instructions are short for most of these quick makes. They are all crochet projects and my favourite one is the Dainty Lace Magnet Buttons. There is a crochet stitch guide at the back of the book.
