A fun read and great patterns. Highly recommended if you're into knitting for the home. ( )

Unimpressive and unoriginal, unless you like garter stitch rectangles and faux down-home smarm. ( )

Must-have. ( )

This collection of knitting patterns and information is fun and informative. The patterns are great. I have checked it out so many times, I am going to have to buy it some day. ( )

The log cabin knitting section caught my eye, and I have made several items using this techniqe, which doesn't require much thought or expertise, but can produce a spectacular result. Pictures and explanations are generally good, altho a lot is expected of the knitter, which could turn off newbies (keep other sources close to hand!)
