Anyone who makes baskets is probably familiar with Lyn Siler and her basket books. Her patterns are varied, and her instructions are so clear and consice that even a beginner can end up with a beautiful result. This newest book is no exception. Lots of great baskets, nice photos, simple-to-follow and simple-to-understand instructons. The only problem is that if you already have Lyn's other books, there's not much of anything new in this one. It's more of a compilation of her other well-loved pattern books, and while I would whole-heartedly recommend it for someone who is just starting out, or someone who has never bought one of her books before, I would tell the Lyn Siler fans not to bother buying what amounts to a collection of her favorite basket patterns from all her other books.
I just started making baskets and wanted to collect a variety of how-to books and also books with wonderful photos of baskets ( sort of a future dream of baskets to come.) This will be a great resource.
