** FTC DISCLAIMER: I RECEIVED NETGALLEY E-ARC IN EXCHANGE FOR AN HONEST REVIEW. RECEIVING THIS BOOK IN THIS MANNER DOES NOT AFFECT MY OPINION OF THE BOOK OR THE CONTENTS OF MY REVIEW.** The collection in this book contains fifteen beautiful original cloth patterns designed for all skill levels. These on-trend designs are versatile enough to complement any outfit while still retaining the warmth and comfort of a raincoat, making them perfect for any season. The patterns require different yarn counts, allowing you to create a variety of textures to prolong the joy of knitting all year round. Laura Zukaite, the author, was inspired for this book by the craft traditions she observed on her travels in South America. You can definitely see this inspiration in many aspects of her designs, from her wide range of color palettes, her use of rich and bold colors to neutral and basic colors, and the variety of stitches she uses. The beautiful color photos show Laura's designs using a variety of stitches such as herringbone and cables, ruffles, stripes, geometric patterns and other eye-catching motifs. The patterns in this book are actually incredibly straight forward and I was amazed at how easy it was to follow the instructions. And the photos have definitely come in handy in keeping me informed and making sure I'm getting the stitches right and continue to do so. I particularly liked that Inspired Shawls caters to knitters of all skill levels, although I'm not a beginner knitter I haven't knitted in a while so I know I've forgotten a few things. Overall, I can definitely say that I think Inspirational Shawls is something that should be in every knitter's library.
