What do the conditions mean?

Our conditions mean the following:

  • New - a brand new book
  • Almost New - appears new but is actually secondhand.
  • Very Good - only minor imperfections such as minor scuffs to edge or cover or a price written in pencil or shop sticker.
  • Standard Secondhand - Clearly been read before, but not too bad. We do not recommend these for gifting. Spines usually creased. Could also include creases or folds to cover, some writing such as in the cover or elsewhere, underlining or highlighting, but might not do. Possibly some stains or marks. Similar in general to books in any secondhand shop or charity shop.
  • Poor Condition - Usually this will have a specific problem such as writing inside, water damage, missing dust jacket, heavy staining, large creases or cuts. These are readable copies but not nice ones. On other websites this condition is called 'Acceptable' or 'Fair' , but we want to be more honest.

Crochet has made a comeback: everyone from Prada to Roberto Cavalli featured it in their latest collections. It can have a delicate lacy beauty or it may be robust and hard-wearing – a modern fabric with practical uses. To be up-to-the-minute in the fashion stakes you need crochet, but what if you don't know how to crochet a simple chain, never mind interpret the strange language and complicated-looking instructions for anything more complex? And how do you choose from all those tempting and different types of yarn...?

Crochet is much simpler than it may appear. With the help of clear instructions, coupled with step-by-step photographs, 'First Crochet' explains the individual techniques. It features over 20 unique projects, each accompanied by photographs showing the key stages, so you can check your work every step of the way. The projects include both stylish items for the home, such as cushions and a throw, as well as fashionable gifts for your friends or for yourself, such as scarves, bags and baby items.

From the first loop to the last seam, this book is ideal for the beginner. Its comprehensive instructions – with fold-out flaps giving key techniques for quick reference – will make mastering this skill easy and fun for the reader.
