Dh got some bonuse money from work and I get a new book :D I can knit but think I want to crochet because I like the look of the stitches. What is a good book to buy or do i need to buy 2 books?

Thanks!

My sis gave me the new Stitch & Bit@# Nation book. I really like it. Has lots of neat patterns and instructions.

Hmm. Well, I don't actually have this book, but if I were you I'd check into The Complete Encyclopedia of Needlework. I have The Complete Encyclopedia of Crochet, and TCEON is by the same woman, so I am certain it is as good, though not as exhaustive.

Also, check out www.stitchguide.com, which has video clips & written instructions for both knitting & crochet stitches.
