PATTERN RATING: There is a great variety of patterns, including two hand puppets and a natural bear, with great detail, full-size patterns that are well marked, and with a variety of clothing patterns to go with each bear - I don't think you can get better than that.

INSTRUCTION RATING: Instructions are broken down into steps and are pretty easy to follow, with some illustration to help the crafter.

SUMMARY- I was amazed at how many patterns she managed to get into this one book, and the variety is really impressive. I happily recommend this book.
