22nd is my most favorite stitch and I've sold an afghan with that stitch and got great feedback on it. So far, Sept. I've only had the calendar since September so I haven't seen all the stitches but I've tried a few on some afghan projects and so far I've loved the look I've gotten. Some of the more open stitches are best done with a fairly small crochet hook, like an 'f' hook or smaller.
Easy to read and follow. Everyday there is a new stitch. There are no actual patterns, but one can easily adapt a pattern through the stitch count. This calendar is great. If one is looking for something new or some inspiration for a project, this is it.
Imagine the delightful challenge of producing a square of each stitch into an awesome afghan. into scarves, sweaters, hats, etc. I'm drooling at the possabilities.One of the best features of 365 Crochet Stitches a Year: Perpetual Calendar is its SPIRAL BINDING, insuring that you can easily reuse it for years to come. This is not one of those calendars that you use to jot down dental appointments or trips to the vet and then toss out at the end of the year. This is a calendar that you will keep forever, using again and again to keep your crochet skills really up-to-date.As I flipped through it, I dreamed of incorporating these new stitches (well, new to me.).
I love mine and happily give it the space it needs. Clear instructions and photos of a swatch for each stitch make this little gem useful for beginner's or experts. And since it's a perpetual calander, it's a bargin at this price.It's a little bigger than your typical desktop calendar but the stand up feature is fantastic.
The photos are very clear to see each stitch. The directions are concise and detailed. Both Jean and Rita have provided a great resource guide for crochet. Fabulous. This 365 Crochet Stitches Perpetual Calendar is a must have for any Crochet Artist.
