• Love the editorials; unlikely to knit the projects
  Four not three because the editorial content is fab. Four not five because I don't need to own it and it won't change my life.

  I like this book for its innovation and sense of fun. The authors share their great love of knitting with the reader in such a genuine way. In reading this book, I feel as if I belong to a special group of people--knitters! This connection knows no boundary of age, class, or level of experience. It just IS, and these autors "get it".

I've spotted two patterns I want to do immediately, two more for when I have time for full sweaters, and another I'll borrow a chunk of for similiar project. I ended up coming back to the first book time and time again, and it looks like this will be the same.
