Summary: A Beginner's Dream Come True!
Review: Mr. Boswell's "The Rug Hook Book" was one of the first rug hooking books that I purchased, and it is still one of the best. For the money, it surpasses the others. Mr. Boswell's book is filled with colored pictures of inspiring rugs, patterns, illustrations, and easy to use directions. He introduces you to many of the artist's in the rug hooking world. All of his projects include well drawn patterns along with instructions, equipment lists, and dye sources.I have completed over six rugs now, and I am still inspired by this book! If you have to have one book, order this one! It's even offered in paperpack which makes it affordable by all! This book really is a rug hooker's dream come true!

Summary: My great grandmother would have loved this one!
Review: This book is AWFUL. The designs are dull, very old fashioned and out of date. It is a complete waste of money if you are younger than 95 years old. If you are looking for a fantastic book on this subject look at "The Rug Hook Book" by Thom Boswell, it covers it all from where to get supplies, choosing fabrics (with lots of ideas for adding fun and unusual materials for texture and color), great patterns from traditional to modern. I just can't say enough. If you only buy one book.....this should be the one! --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
