This is one of my absolute favorite stitch dictionaries. It’s really good! I love the layout of the book and the instructions. I like the clarity of the diagrams, I like the samples of the stitches, I like the various information about the stitches, including alternate names and so forth. I also like the way the stitches are categorized and the “visual” table of contents. It’s just a Great stitch dictionary to have on your shelf!
