1.0 out of 5 stars very disappointing, 19 Jan 2006

By A Customer

I had hoped that this book would offer novel, interesting takes on the scarf but I was really disappointed. All but one of the scarves featured was dull, dowdy and middle-aged and didn't merit being in a book since if you really wanted to knit a scarf along those lines you could design it very easily yourself. The scarf I did like (Backyard Leaves) looks interesting and challenging, creating bas-relief leaves, but comments by knitbloggers who have completed it suggests that they found the instructions very unsatisfying. This is because the scarf is knit in two parts with a seam at the back but there are no directions on seaming it to avoid a really obvious join and normal techniques don't work with this pattern.

This was a very disappointing buy and I don't recommend it.

4.0 out of 5 stars So much more than scarves, 17 Nov 2004

By A Customer

This is a truly inspirational book. The patterns include wraps, capes and sleeved shrugs as well as scarves of all types. It covers all types of knitting, from simple garter/stocking stitch to lace, cables and intarsia as well as some crochet projects. Many of the yarns are not available in the the UK, but can be substituted easily.
The only quibbles I have are that the layout is sometimes a little confusing, with the photo of one project next to the instructions for another. Also, it is a little short in men's scarves.
Other than that, I highly recommend it. Get one now and get your Christmas knitting sorted!

5.0 out of 5 stars great inspiration!, 5 Jan 2005

By A Customer

I love this book! It's a great mix of styles and also projects - some quick and easy others more lengthy. Also like the fact that mixes knitting and crochet and I've never crocheted before but this has got me hooked. Just be aware that it is a US book and US crochet terms are quite different to UK so although techniques are included if you can crochet already you may just need to double check you are doing the right stitch first. This is a book to have on your bookshelf and will provide ideas and inspiration for years to come
