### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Another Cool Dover Book of Vintage Patterns, Small Font
*by A***I on October 28, 2017*

This is the second of Dover's Vintage Crochet books that I purchased from Amazon a few years back, and I must say I'm happy it's back in print for your sake (because I had to put it on my wait list until a seller put it up online who wasn't trying to price gouge). Thus, I had to purchase it used. I purchased it because I had been impressed with their "150 Favorite Crochet Designs" book and wanted some additional patterns. Crochet books, in particular thread crochet, used to be one of the widgets I collected back in what seems like a different life almost when I had significantly more spare time then I anticipate ever having again.Like the other book mentioned, this has vintage thread crochet patterns. As such, for many of them, you actually can find them free on-line, if you have the time and patience. I don't, and I didn't, and I found it to be worth the time and the price to have so many printed in one place. Not to mention the cost of ink and paper to print them all up yourself... The patterns in this book are different then the ones in "150 Favorite Crochet Designs," so there isn't any overlap and I found it to be a worthwhile purchase.Also, please note this is not a book for beginners, it assumes that you already know how to work all of the stitches used, and indeed like the other book I mentioned, you will need intermediate to advanced crochet skills to work these. Also like their other book, the font is small, some of it is downright tiny, like font 8 or 7, possibly even 6 in a couple of patterns (the font varies in size from pattern to pattern) so heads up if you have vision problems that would make that difficult for you to work with. Also, as these are reprinted from older publications, they do not have stitch diagrams (with the exception of typical fillet crochet block patterns) that many more modern publications and patterns provide. So if you are accustomed to patterns that feature those and are not as familiar with how to read abbreviated written patterns, there is an abbreviation legend at the front of the book which is pretty standard, but that is a heads up.Some of the patterns in here are very striking in appearance, and if you have the time, I think this definitely could be a worthy addition to your own collection.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A good find in good condition.
*by G***M on April 25, 2024*

There are some old hard to find patterns included in the book.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ TRULY GORGEOUS, HISTORICAL PIECES OF CROCHET ART!
*by A***N on May 19, 2016*

This book is part of the Dover Needlework Series, which is historically important as it resurrects some of the most gorgeous, intricate patterns going back over 150 years. If you create a tablecloth from this book, or a bedspread, or even a very fine doily or runner, you've created a family heirloom. I have every one of these books I can lay my hands on, and every one is worth it, not a one will disappoint.
