Disappointed!
It doesn’t have many of the projects from their site that I was hoping it would. I think it had 1-2 of the 6 patterns I wanted. I’ll keep it though. I may have leftover jute to make something with it.

Interesting
This is an interesting look at working with raffia yarn. I'm personally not a fan of raffia. I think it's coarse and uncomfortable to work with, but I haven't tried the raffia from Wool and the Gang, so I can't say anything about that. The book is as amusing as the company itself. The titles of the projects are cute and quirky, as are the names of the yarns used. The photography is really good, and the projects are practical and things that people may want to make, so that's always a plus. The layout is nice and the instructions seem pretty clear. There are also handy diagrams, explanations for basic stitches, and helpful tips for working with the raffia. If raffia is your thing, this is a good project book. I'd say the projects may work with other types of ribbon yarns or sisal or cording, but I haven't tried any of the projects for myself. Too many ideas, too little time. I received a preview copy of this book from Netgalley and these are my own honest opinions.

Beautiful Projects
I love the projects in this book. I am teaching myself to crochet and the instructions are fairly easy for me to understand. I especially like that market bag and would like to attempt that project. Many thanks to F-W Media and to NetGalley for providing me with a galley in exchange for my honest opinion.

Quick projects
But some of the instructions are confusing. Not written in standard crochet terms.
