I'm feeling very tweedy these days, and this seems like a nice book. Lots of historical stuff about tweed as well as some nice patterns. On the other hand, I hate brand-specific knitting books, and this is Tahki S-C, which I've never been able to buy except online, so that's kind of annoying.
An interesting and visually appealing history of tweed yarns. The patterns included I didn't find appealing, with almost no exception.
The patterns and ideas are okay but the history and making of tweed and wool is pretty interesting.
got me knitting with tweed now.
