5.0 out of 5 stars Real Patterns for shapely women, 28 Jun 2006

By	flickchick6 (UK) - See all my reviews

This is a great book with a great mixture of designs from sweaters and skirts to accessories. All the designs are given a guide as to what will suit you body shape ( boobs, bum or belly). At the start of the book is a fabulous guide on how to measure yourself and adapt knitting patterns to fit us larger girls perfectly. The patterns are fitted and not loose or tight just fitted. Although not all the patterns where to my taste I love the fact that I can now adapt my other patterns to fit me not just to hang as a sack. A must for any women who wants to adapt patterns and a must for big girls everywhere

5.0 out of 5 stars And they mean it, 1 Feb 2007

By	Abigail "Abigail" (England) - See all my reviews

This book has big girl knits for real big girls. The first Patten in the book is around a 52" chest so if you were thinking 'oh it's another book that says big' you would be gladly wrong. The biggest criticism of this book seems to be that the models look too big in the clothes and the photos do not show the true potential of the garment but every girl in the book looks without fail beautiful, though sometimes the clothes do not look made for them, but, hold your breath, this is the point of the book.
The book starts off with a wonderfully complete guide to changing patterns up or down to your size (making it useful for the less ample too) and goes on to explain quite simply and very clearly how to alter patterns, how to flatter a particular asset, how to sculpt patterns and how most importantly how to measure yourself properly.
It's also really rather funny too.

2.0 out of 5 stars For ladies who wish to *excentuate* their bulges., 14 Jun 2006

By	JAK "JaneK" (Cambridge) - See all my reviews

The information at the beginning of the book is very useful for any knitter - be they small or large - but I was very disappointed with the patterns. I thought that some of them made the models look even bigger as they added bulk and seem in some cases not to fit properly. I have a huge knitting book collection and this has been the most disappointing.
