Simple, lovely designs, *charted only*
These are not elaborate crochet designs but beautifully detailed. They are charted without written instructions. That's pretty typical of a lot of Japanese crochet designs. There is a detailed description for each charting symbol in the back. Great photography and quite a few things I'd like to make.

Not for a beginner, or if you dislike charts
I bought this through another company & couldn't browse the book before buying. I thought it would be nice to see Japanese style patterns & projects. I do like a several of the projects in the book. Many of the step-by-step photos are good in the "point lessons" for the different stitches featured. However, a person new to crochet would likely get frustrated with the lack of instructions: the patterns are charted with minimal other instructions. The patterns aren't totally written out like many are used to (including myself). I'm interested in trying them out though, to see how I do. One thing I'm not fond of is that they don't have a symbol key for the charts in the book-I'll be referring to another resource if I forget a symbol.

Pure pleasure
This is a great book for people who are willing to go the extra mile in self learning to create beautiful textures. It will help to know how to read a crochet pattern before hand. Suits the adventures type who is happy to be challenged.

Designs are beautiful, but patterns are incomprehensible
Even though I've been crocheting for many years, crochet charts are new to me. When I try to find details on how to do the crocheted puff entrelac stitch, for example, there's only a chart. That would be okay if somewhere in the book there was an explanation of the chart symbols; there isn't one. I can find some of the symbols online, but not all of them, so this book is pretty much useless. I expect better from Nixon Vogue and Tuttle.
