Hi Everyone!
On Sept. 8 I posted that I had been asked by Sixth & Springs publishing to review two new books. The first was Creative Paper Jewelry which I found to be an excellent instructional book. The second book is Creative Crochet Jewelry by Esther Zadock. Even though crochet has been around since the 16th century its popularity comes and goes. However, for the past 10 years crochet and especially crochet jewelry is trendy again. I am very pleased that in this book there are 0ver 30 jewelry projects. That is an astounding amount for any instruction book. I am impressed with the process of the each project, execution of materials, and the wear-ability of each design. I did find that a knowledge in crochet is helpful but there are patterns to suit the beginner to the advanced. I know that once you have this book in your hands you will want to get started on these fabulous jewelry designs. Esther has gone a step above from the ordinary with her creations giving her audience a true sense of fashion for the women of the 21 century.
If you already know how to crochet or if you want to get started I would recommend this book.
Purchase price is just $19.95
