I *LOVE* this book. I was first introduced to it when I was a little girl back in the late '70's, and it's just as indispensible now as it was then. The last revision was done in the early 80's (which the photos show), but honestly, there's not much more to add or change about it. It covers everything from basic sewing, to rug-making, macrame to knitting - even tatting! It's a great way to teach yourself how to do crafts, with the detailed pictures, drawings, and written instructions. A wonderful find and a great addition to anyone's collection of crafting books.
