Building on How to Crochet Vol. I, How to Crochet Vol. 2, covers a multitude of more complex stitches.  Readers will learn how to make shell stitches, bobble, popcorn, lace and mesh stitches.  Detailed instructions, along with a picture of the finished stitch are provided.  As with the first book, readers must memorize the abbreviations for the basic chain stitches, or they will be confused, as the instructions are given with these abbreviations.Chapter 2 explains the different types of yarns that can be used for a project, and chapter 3 gives a few additional specialty stitches - star, pineapple and crocodile.  What crotchet book would be complete without a project?  The projects in this book include an afghan, sweater, hat and scarf set, handbag and squares. A bonus chapter is also given which include charities in need of crocheted items, and places to sell crocheted items.How to Crochet Vol. II is an excellent book for those wishing to learn more about crocheting and try new projects.
