 A feast for the eyes and the needles September 10, 2008
As a fairly new knitter I was a little daunted by this book at first, but having completed one item (a bag decorated with buttons) and used the pattern from the beaded shrug to make a more straightforward rectangular shawl, I've found it both clear and inspirational.
There are some simple, pretty patterns for bags and tops, some beautiful lace pieces and a gorgeous dressing gown that I can only dream of ever having the time and skill to knit....
Overall something to go to when you want something a little bit special. Highly recommended.

This book's knitting patterns are just gorgeous and even though I haven't knitted anything yet due to several other projects that are desperate to get finished I am sure I will. The patterns are lovely and far from the usual boring jumper. It's surely not a book for beginners but I can do with a challenge for once.
The only thing that really annoyed me was that this is exactly the same book as "Romantic Style: Knits and Crochet to Wear or Display" from Jennie Atkinson. Apart from the cover it is word for word and picture for picture identical. I do know because I purchased both books first. If you intend to buy this book, go for the cheaper one.
A very worthy book! At least I think so!
