Book Reviews of Nursery Knits: 25 Easy-Knit Designs for Clothes, Toys and Decorations

Book Review: Patterns are darling, but instructions suffer
Summary: 3 Stars

I'm one of those knitters who will tackle any project--what's the worst that could happen, right? I've done just about everything, now, and I've made many a child's sweater. But the Boy's Own Jacket has some serious flaws. Just for starters:
* The instructions for placement of increases on the sleeves are unclear.
* The hood is the same size as the entire body of the jacket.
* The whole jacket is simply too small to be intended for a 24-month-old child, though my gauge is accurate.

All these problems, and yet no errata for this pattern. Bizarre!

I'm wondering if these books are using test knitters at all? I just can't figure out why the directions always seem to be so vague, and I hate that there are no schematics. Such a shame, since the patterns are adorable.
