I really enjoyed Crochet Animal Rugs. I am an experienced crocheter, and found the instructions to be clear and easy to follow. The book is filled with step by step color photos, with written and symbol instructions so anybody can follow along. There are seven different animal rug designs, and I really enjoyed the projects that go along with each rug. They allows you to take the design through out the whole room. The author provides helpfull advice and variations on her desings at the end of the book, which I also found very helpfull. I do a lot of baby showers and this book offers nice alternative to the classic baby blanket. Overall Crochet Animal Rugs will make a great addition to any crocheters library!
