All About Crochet by Jean Leinhauser and Rita Weiss, hardback, spiral bound published by Martingale. ISBN 978-1-56477-906-9, price 24.99 US dollars from www.martingale-pub.com
I have recently reviewed a number of crochet stitch books and I have to say that this slim volume is not as comprehensive as some. It is compact, easy to use and explains things in detail with good line drawings. The format is an A-Z of crochet techniques and I think that would have been a better title. It gives information on yarns and has a useful abbreviations list. I found the section on Irish crochet useful. Similarly bullion stitch and cable were of interest to me. However, if you are really looking for a crochet stitch dictionary, this is not the book for you, there are better on the market. For crochet techniques, this is very good.
