Crocheted Christmas Ornament Covers 2
I purchased this book, and it's sister book because I was looking to expand on the ornaments I make each year for Christmas. I was greatly disappointed in both of them. I have made several of the covers before..but Not from these books, NOT by this author!!!!! They were made from a book I purchased in the late 1970's..different author, different publisher! Now, I don't know all that much about copyright law, perhaps it expired after 40+ years and the other author passed on or gave the instructions to her, and to be totally truthful, the patterns are just the a tiny bit different...a different size hook, change up the diameter stitches from 64 to 58, add or subtract a chain here or there, the original used plain old #10 string, Ms. Allen used Twiley's Goldfingering, with an offer and address to purchase. I am sure her publisher went through all the laws, and that this is legal, but I don't think it is ethical.
Just what I was looking for. Finished items are impressive
If you are looking for something fast, easy, and impressive when finished, these patterns are just the thing. Way easier than other ornament covers I have made.
Looks great
I haven't tried it yet, but plan on using it for my ornaments next year. I have made ornaments for the family for 20 years and it gets harder every year to find nifty ideas. If the instructions are written correctly. I have found them in this book.
