Vintage Learn to Crochet Book - J.P. Coats Book No.233
So you've never crocheted before? Well, here's where you start learning how easy it is. Go straight up the steps on the first two pages, down the steps on the next two pages and there, practically before you can say Marth Washington, you've got all the hand positions at your finger tips and can even make a chain. From there on it's a cinch to learn the other stitches and make all the pretty things in this book. It is in good condition for a 1946 book. It shows signs of wear but is intact and complete.
Practice Pieces - Directions are given for a small practice piece or swatch for each stitch that you learn. When you have learned these stitches, attractive articles can be made from the directions included in this book. Also included directions for the left hand.
