Book Love

There's a new book in my collection!  This time it's Kyuuto! Lacy Crochet, which is a Japanese craft book with English translation.  The projects are simple, pretty, and functional and the photography is everything you would expect from a Japanese craft book - so beautiful!  I'm really bad at reading/following crochet instructions, but I had to have this for the inspiration and gorgeous pictures if nothing else.  I even bought a teeny-tiny crochet hook to try out a few of the simpler patterns!  


Here is one of my favorite photos from the book:
