From the dust jacket--"A showcase of 47 craft ideas, each one fun, fully satisfying to complete, and vividly illustrated, a stunning collection of welcome gifts to make yourself, ranging in style from the best traditional to the very contemporary. For those who are new to crafts or who want to learn new techniques, a complete, illustrated how-to guide at the back of the book tells all you need to know to make any project in this book; it also gives you tips on how to make any piece look more professional when completed. Finally you'll find that the yarns and other materials needed to do the projects are readily available and inexpensive."
Definitely a collection of different projects -- from afghans to golf club covers to a mobile for the baby's room, from a doggy sweater to board-game set to a bikini and sandals -- using different needlecrafts including knitting, crochet, needlepoint, rug latch hooking, macrame... In other words, a little something for everyone ;)
Do keep in mind that the book's copyright date is 1977.
