Finally found it!

The book had the drawing I've been looking for for years - the real Gansey. Plus a real surprise - wimp! Internet searches were unsuccessful, but this book had two variations of this sleek, stylish accessory. There are many more "wishes and wishes” that I hope to be able to fulfill before my knitting days are over.

Pros
  • Perfect for outdoor activities
Cons
  • Not sure

Nice book but WRONG instructions

I chose a sweater on page 36 and started knitting. It took about fifteen minutes to check the direction and image in the book and realize that they were two completely different sweaters. I liked the intricate photo of the cables, but due to incorrect basic instructions I decided to go no further and ripped out what I had started. If the directions for the first few rows are wrong, the rest of the directions are probably wrong too. It's frustrating when editors and designers don't take the time

Pros
  • Sturdy workmanship
Cons
  • Damaged
