I just purchased the 250 stitches to crochet and the 250 motifs. I haven't worked on the stitches yet, but have made a rose motif so far. I think both books are great and I really like the use of charts in both books. I'm looking forward to getting smaller hooks and thread to make the different motifs and to use the stitch guide to possibly design sweaters for myself.

I love the Harmony Books. I have older copies but wouldn't hesitate to replace them with the current books if needed. They are a must in my crochet book library.
