  • Easy to follow

    The pictures and written instructions are very clear and easy to follow. As a left-hander I need to reverse all the moves but this isn't a problem as this book is foolproof. Sarah Shrimpton has a friendly way of writing, making the book enjoyable at the same time as teaching a skill.
