Crochet For Barbie

Wonderful! I actually learned how to crochet with Barbie and this book. The fashions are so fabulous and elegant even enough for the Silkstones. I have even experimented with the patterns to make them fit Dawn and the Bratz. It's great to have a book full of stylish, contemporary fashions for my beloved dolls. Thank you, Nicky Epstein for such a fab book!

Great Desins for Barbie lovers

I love Barbie and I love crochet. These are fresh updated designs for her to look fabulous all year round. No one should loose their inner child. This book will help me keep mine close by.

Cant wait to Get Started!

These are the clothes I wish I had for MY Barbie when I was a kid. I now have grandchildren to make them for and couldnt ask for a better book to go by. Fabulous patterns! Get it....this book will not disappoint.

Fabulous clothes

I bought this book to make some Barbie clothes for my granddaughter. The thread is a little high-end, but the clothes are fabulous. The instructions are easy to follow, and I could easily substitute yarns.

Only crochet book you will need 4 tasteful Barbie fashions

I was truly delighted to find a book of tasteful fashions for Barbie. The old crochet patterns are usually full of bushy or frumpy outfits using bulky yarn. Hurray for Nicky Epstein! The only problem I had was finding the yarn in a basic craft store. As soon as I stepped into an embroidery or needlepoint store I found many possibilities. Well stocked yarn shops also have a variety of "strings" and thinner yarns.
