Also included are techniques for knitting, crochet, sewing and needlework.

This book contains the patterns and directions for all of the knitting, crochet, and needlework projects. It has some of the patterns for the sewing - the projects which are not clothing are included in the book. Clothing patterns refer to a pattern pack that probably came with the series originally, but I do not have those. Some of the clothing patterns are drawn out with measurements and so you would be able to draft the patterns from these drawings. All instructions are included for the projects. If you need to know which clothing patterns have a drawing, feel free to convo me!

This book has light wear, with a few of the project pages 'turned over' at the top from where the previous owner was keeping place. Otherwise there are no marks or tears, it is in very good condition.
Since this is a pattern and idea book it is being sold as is with no returns.
