Book Excerpt:

That crocheting continues to be the most fascinating and popular form of Art Needlework is evidenced by the many requests we have received from all sources to hasten the publication of our Crochet Book No. 2. In preparing this book our purpose has been to show a sufficient variety of designs to be of interest to all. None of the patterns are too complicated for the average worker.
