Book Review: lovely to have.
Summary: 4 Stars
This is a delightful book and filled with loads of interesting patterns. I'm not sure if I'll actually knit anything from it, but for a pattern collector it's great to see the old patterns jazzed up and brought to life for a new generation to have a go at.
