Customer Review: I liked this, but didn't love it. This is the story focused around the owner of a knitting shop who is a single parent of a daughter. I was hoping it would be more like the Elm Creek Quilters books, but the knitting fell more to the background than I would have liked. The character development was... more info
Customer Review: I love this book. It's easy to read and understand. It is helping me figure out how to read patterns and work on a few more projects. It also has great tips and ideas. I highly recommend it to anyone who is interested in knitting.
Customer Review: I wasn't planning on buying another knitting book that day I was in the bookstore, but after a few minutes of leafing through this book, buying it was a done deal. There are so many clever techniques in this book; such a wealth of information (I consider myself an intermediate knitter). It explains... more info
Customer Review: As an ambitious beginner knitter, I keep this book beside me when I sit down to knit--it has become my essential learning and reference guide. After knitting for just a couple of months, I jumped right in, using advanced techniques like cables and fair isle that I learned by following the... more info
Customer Review: Everyone's comments about how great this book is, are so accurate. I am very glad I bought this book. It has been a fantastic resource for me, a moderately experienced knitter. Highly recommended.
Customer Review: I picked up this book along with a few other 'girlie' books and finally got around to opening it. It intrigued with a story of friendship as well as the lives they all led. I don't know if I saw the ending coming before the gals in the book did. But the book seemed to just 'end'.more info
Customer Review: I've been hearing about this book for some time on Ravelry, an online forum for knitters, crocheters, and other fiber fans. When someone asks "What general knitting book should I buy?" 8 times out of 10, the reply includes Vogue Knitting. I've been knitting for over 20 yrs. and don't feel the need... more info
Customer Review: Although a beautiful book, I find the instructions confusing and have put it aside for my next garage sale. I think knitting should be zen-like and not something so complicated that I have to constantly refer to a picture or instruction. Not fun........ Probably fine for someone that has taken a... more info
Customer Review: Even though this little book is almost 100 yrs old, I found the exercises fun and it was great practice for doing larger projects like quilts, sweaters and etc. Even though the free preview doesn't give you much info, don't let that detract from the value of this book.
Customer Review: I love this book. I can't say it enough. For me, I picked it up when I really couldn't even knit, and immediately put it back down. It won't teach you how to knit, but then that's not it's purpose. EZ starts with the assumption that you can already cast on, knit, and execute a decrease. None of... more info
