A Beginner's Guide to Home Shoemaking: I Can Make Shoes

this book is OK but all about the company. Very slick marketing. If you have plenty money take one of their courses. Cheaper to watch some of their you tube lessons. could you make a pair of shoes from instructions in the book ? YES !

Just not quite what I wanted but a useful reference.

I bought this book hoping to fill in the gaps that the I Can Make Shoes website and YouTube channel miss, such as how to create a pattern. Sadly this information isn't included so everything included in this book is just steps you can get for free. I note that she talks about using cork filler (as she does on YouTube) for the bottom of the shoes but doesn't sell it on her own website. The book was also full of grammatical mistakes. If she doesn't have the skills to write, grammarly is free (or just use Word) and work have fixed the issues. In addition, the copy I received had missing print on some of the pages so that sentences couldn't be read. I returned my copy.
