Broomstick Lace Crochet: A New Look at a Vintage Stitch with 20 Stylish Designs covers a type of lace crochet made using a huge needle ("broomstick") and a crochet hook--and this means that projects can be completed in hours rather than days. The author's step-by-step discussions of these techniques includes the basics of how to increase and decrease so newcomers to crochet can access the projects, while those seeking a particular focus on the broomstick lace style will find hats, skirts, tops, and more that represent an array of patterns and approaches. The result is a fine survey that offers many new options to crochet workers at all stages of craft. -- Diane Donovan The Bookwatch, February 2016
