Creepy Cute Crochet: Zombies, Ninjas, Robots, and More! Oh have I alot to say about this book. First off the title is perfect and honestly this is one of the things that really made me want to check it out, so good job on that part. My first clue that this book was worth every penny was when we picked it up at the mail box and my 12 year old son opened up the package and I had to practically arm wrestle him to get a look at my own book. Yes it is that good. Although I have no had the chance to make anything from the book yet, in my opinion it has a great tutorial on how to put them all together and the schematics are very clear. Now onto the patterns. I guarantee there is something for everyone in this book, Robot, Monkey, Day of the Dead couple, Grim reaper, Knight, Spartan, Medusa (now this really cracked me up) and more. Now I have to decide what to make first, decisions, decisions. If you would like a review of your product or book, please contact me at Hook, Yarn, and Needles P.O. Box 864 Elko, NV 89803 |

For anyone who want to try to make a cable stich but havent a cable hook yet.. Just try with my method. Use this empty filler ballpoint or straw for mineral water as a cable hook. The result is the same if you use a cable hook.. Happy knitting always :) WOW, now I think this is a good idea especially for those of us who are only 2 hours away from the nearest yarn shop. Thanks again to Thata, My Lovely Patterns |
