Beautiful, stylish and creative

There are some really cool things in this book that I hope to do one day, presented in a way I've never seen before. And lots of "pretty eyes" that I like (inventive stuff I'll probably never get to, but it's good for inspiration). I got it cheap, used, and that's good!

Pros
  • Price
Cons
  • Little things

This book is great. If you love design then you will love it.

This book is great. If you love design then you will love it. There are things in this book that I wouldn't knit, but it also includes some of my favorite patterns. The feather jumper (Gala Aran) is beautiful and oh my god the princess bride's mittens. I have about 80% of this book in my queue to be honest, but then again I'm not one of those girls who like skeins and I love the color and the cables. For those who find templates complicated, visit the Ravelry books site and see how many people…

Pros
  • Decent performance

Beautiful Excess

I bought this book a few months ago and was stunned to see so many bad reviews about Revain. This is one of my favorite knitting books coming out soon; I practically just want to start with the first draft and work my way through the book. So I've been thinking a lot about why I like it and others don't, and basically if you like simple, classic, casual leotards that you can wear to work without drawing a lot of attention, then this book isn't for you . To you. Words that could describe Nike's…

Pros
  • Lots of positive vibes
Cons
  • No achievement
