Book Review: A worthy successor.
Summary: 4 Stars
Shannon Okey, Knitgrrl 2 (Watson-Guptill, 2006)
Shannon Okey's back with another book of patterns like you've never seen before. Readers of Okey's first book (titled, not surprisingly, Knitgrrl) will recognize the general layout here-- how-to tips with clear illustrations, silly, endearing artwork, and of course, the patterns. While the book starts out feeling like a retread-- the patterns at the beginning will be in-your-sleep kinds of things for those who went through the first book-- don't let your guard down. By the time you get to the patterns at the back of the book, you will be challenged unless you are a seasoned veteran-- and you may be challenged anyway, even if you are.
Good, solid stuff, just like the first book. If you liked one, you'll like the other. *** ½
