Great info but not really an in depth how-to book
This book is well formatted, and the link jumps in the index work great. If you are into embroidery the historical info in the book will have great value to you, so will the pictures in it if you are looking for inspiration. If you are looking for a how-to book so you can learn how to do embroidery this book is not the book you want even though it does offer some how-to info and tips on things like how to get the puckers out & etc, as well as a few stitch illustrations that are clear and easy to follow. I am still learning embroidery, and even with the limited stitch creation info, I do consider the $.99 price a bargain price for lots of info on a subject that interests me ... Read more

Buyer Beware
If you are looking for a particular volume of this set.........please ask questions before buying.
While it definitely seemed too good to be true that you would get a 20 volume set for the price listed
here, I could find nowhere where it said any different. And in my naviete (can I say ignornance) I
thought it would at least be the first volume (which had been recommended for a particular pattern).
What I received was a very "flat" package with..........volume 9..........in it. While the book itself
is full of nice, informative things.......it was still a disappointment. This book will be going to my
local library in the hope that at least someone will get some use out of it.

Amazon, I must say, that your item description definitely needs to be revamped to give customers a
clearer indication of what they will be receiving...........

Happy Happy Happy
I am thrilled about this purchase.I have wanted this set for years and slowly one volume at a time purchasing them as I found them. When I saw this on Amazons list I thought it was too good to be true but after a couple of weeks of looking at this I ordered it.When it came it was better than listed and I am thrilled.

EXCELLENT REFERENCE BOOKS - & VINTAGEPATTERNS
I love this set of books. They are very handy. There are great step by step instructions, with photographs. Its easy to learn from these books. If you want a knitting and crochet reference you cant beat this, especally at the price. It covers most areas of crochet and knitting, and has some unusual stitches that are hard to find elsewhere. Some of the patterns are very dated. But most are still very useable with different colour scemes, and yarns expecally the new feathers yarns. Photocopy the pattern I find it easier to see the true pattern this way, if you take out the horrible colours sceme you can see the pattern is very nice. There are some amazing patterns. Like the liquorice allsorts cushions, realistic looking knitted vegetables. The homemakers section has some very handy patterns, like teddy bears, patchwork quilts etc. The instructions are simple and easy to follow. The sewing intructions look very useful, i am not a sewer so i cant review them. But i highly recommend this set (buy the whole set you will use them)

Dated, but a keeper!
I purchased this 20 volume set over a period of time, finally completing it a couple of years ago.While the styles are dated, the how-to information is not.It has really great step-by-step instructions, with great color photos, to help you learn to knit, crochet, sew and embroider, etc.,As a crocheter, I refer to these volumes more often than I thought I would!The stitches and techniques demonstrated do not go out of style, even tho the featured garments might have.And, even having said that, some of the knit and crochet items are timeless styles as well.I reccomend these volumes for anyone wishing to expand their needlework library, and for anyone wanting a nice way to learn to knit or crochet or even sew. ...
