I liked the book.  The directions are clear and easy to understand; there are some photos & illustrations, and the information covers the basics that a beginner needs to know in order to begin this craft.  It would even be helpful for someone who wants to refresh their basic skills. The inclusion of a table of abbreviations and symbols and what to do when you see them in a pattern is a helpful plus for a beginner.  Directions are provided for some easy projects for you to try.  It would have been nice if photos of the finished projects were included as a reference.  Nevertheless, it's still a very helpful, very good book!
