 Finally real plus size crochet patterns!
By Laura Jones
Loved this book. It has a wide assortment of basic patterns, from a metallic tunic to lacey tops to a coat. The shawl is beautiful, and the purse pattern gives us a purse that is “in proportion”. Also very uselful is the firstborn division that explains how to adjust patterns, make changes in the sizing for bust and arms and raise a neckline. Many books that offer “plus sizes” are just sized up patterns developed for littler figures that don’t fit well (like tiny tight tank tops). The sleeveless shell (also has sameness cardigan) in this book has wide shoulders that will cover bra straps. And the only sizes in the book are from 1x-4x. It is the introductory crochet book in truth formulated for plus sizes and I hope they keep them coming. The patterns in this one are basic shapes and classic styles that would look totally dissimilar by just altering the yarn, colors etc. so you may make various of each pattern.

 So Disappointed!!
By Tigergal67
When I original saw this book was coming out I pre-ordered it right away. As a plus size yarn freak, finding plus-size patterns that flatter is a lot of times very difficult so, I looked forward to this book like a kid waiting for Santa.
I got coal for Christmas. As a woman with a big, chunky body, I’m puzzled at who thought it would be a good idea to make items with big, chunky yarn for girls like me. Although the colors are amazing, the designs themselves are frumpy, bulky and not at all flattering. (With the exception of one of the shawl patterns that is just beautiful.) Most of the stitches are big and bulky, not at all flattering to more prominent size figures.
You BBW yarn goddesses will have to pass this book on by. It is a major disappointment.

 Rather disappointing
By Samantha Trowel
I was very disappointed when I read this book. I was hoping for a crochet version of the Big Girl Knits books, with fashion-forward and trendy patterns. Despite the bright colors, the sweaters are frumpy. How a good deal of button front cardigans does one need? I live in a cold climate, and I own only one. The evident plus size styles are all here: big, thick vertical stripes; oversized cardigans, oversized pullovers. Clothes that cling to outdated rules with regards to what looks best on ‘heavy’ women. There are no styles that show off the plus size woman in her best light, whether she is an apple, a pear, or in-between. How when it comes to an equestrienne jacket or a sexy mock-surplice top? Maybe a cool bamboo or linen hoodie with a zipper? Even, gasp, a few skinny horizontal stripes.
Another complaint I have is with the shaping instructions. Plus size women often times need extra room through the back, bust, armholes, upper arms, ribcage, waist, hips, derriere, etc. In some cases, we need less room in one area and more in another. In sewing this is accomplished through darts, yokes, pleats, etc. Ms. Hubert seems to address mainly armhole, upper arm, and waist.
I also in truth dislike it when there are no diagrams to accompany the patterns. This makes it difficult for any person who is not usual height to adjust the pattern. Consider that I an 5’1″ and 42DD. Also a 2X. But my arms are short for a petite 1X. I have a 25″ inseam, as well! What looks like a normal V-neck may end up at my belly button!
I also agree with the reviewer above who complained in regards to the lack of potpourri in shoulder styles. A raglan in truth fits my little shouldered busty frame better than anything else.
On the plus side: I don’t mind chunky yarns in outerwear, such as the cute mohair coat. The bamboo cardigan is attractive.The stylist surely did these garments a disservice, as they are not shown in the best possible light. I in truth can’t tell if I like the asymmetrical hem polo or not. I like the spiral-bound format: it’d very practical. While the stitch patterns are basic and could be more interesting without increasing difficulty, I am happy sufficient to see something that does not consist of plain double crochet on and on and on.
Ms. Hubert has designed much better garments and written much better books. This looks rushed. I’m sure a great deal of will like it, but it was surely not the book for which I was yearning.
