2 out of 5 stars Beautiful patterns, however....   July 6, 2005
 21 out of 21 found this review helpful

At first glance this book is wonderful- beautiful patterns- clear instuctions. I was excited about using up scraps for some of the patterns. All projects use handspun yarn- wonderful since I am a spinner. BEWARE!!! There are NO yardage requirements for any of the projects period! No weights of finished projects or anything other than your best guess! This is very frustrating for the sweaters (multiple sizes)- who wants to guess, spend all the time knitting then run out of yarn?? Yardage requirements are really a must- as professional designers they should know better. This is definitely NOT a beginner book for this reason- book description is VERY misleading.


3 out of 5 stars Great book - for intarsia   April 18, 2005
 13 out of 14 found this review helpful

Only buy this book if you are interested in knitting complicated intarsia charts with no row numbers. Some of the projects are attractive, but you will need to buy about eighteen different colors of yarn for them.


5 out of 5 stars GORGEOUS!!!   December 8, 2004

I own two of their hand knit sweaters; one that I purchased from a boutique in New York and another from their little store in Arcata California. While in San Francisco on business I decided to make the trip north to peek at more of their goodies. It was well worth the drive. I cant wait to tackle some of the projects in this beautiful book. It makes me want to be a better knitter. I know what Im giving for gifts next Christmas....
