Shawl and scarf patterns originally published in "Knitters Magazine" (volumes 2 through 50) are brought together in this volume. Patterns range in difficulty from intermediate to skilled. The main categories are: (1) Shetland shawls; (2) Faroese shawls; (3) Circular shawls; (4) Triangular shawls; and (5) Rectangular shawls.

The book has many lovely color photographs. Most shawls are shown in more than one photo. I find that very helpful; by showing various angles of a shawl, you get a better idea of how it really looks. There are written and charted instructions for shawl creation. Like all "Knitter's Magazine" books, this is a well written and presented work.
full of inspiring patterns that make you itch to start knitting.
