SUMMARY- Illustrations and sample pictures aren't very clear, but written instructions are easy to read. The instructions are well written - I could follow what the author was trying to teach me - but I already know where I'm going. There's still a lot of helpful information in this book. Patterns for practice are extremely basic doodles - perfect for the person picking up the tatting needle for the first time.
