Book Reviews of Dazzling Knits: Building Blocks to Creative Knitting

Book Review: Wow!
Summary: 5 Stars

Great little book for those of us with lots of yarn and a reasonable skill with simple knitting stitches. I get bored with the same color anything after awhile, so this style of knitting is really great because you don't always know what is going to happen next. Patterns and instructions seem understandable, but you never know until you actually knit the garment. I'm starting one of the vests using my hand spun yarn, with some commercial yarn to tie it all together. It does encourage a knitter to think outside the box!

Summary of Dazzling Knits: Building Blocks to Creative Knitting

Turn basic shapes into fashion statements with a simple "modular" method! The technique works like a puzzle: start by knitting one shape, and then build on that by knitting additional shapes to create a finished garment.

. Includes 14 vest, jacket, and coat designs
. Projects rely on easy-to-knit shapes such as squares, shells, cubes, and triangles
. Featured knits spotlight vibrant, bold colors, as well as alternate versions in more classic hues
