16Oct09 ... just finished the camisole for my mother - not so simple, but complete!
19Oct09 ... (ah! the thrill of working with thicker needles/thicker wool!) the handbag for my sister in-law is there.
27Oct09 Now the socks for my mother in-law are actually quite easy, it's fitting it inbetween everything else that slowed them down! The other big hassle is finding wool/needles that match the patterns: I'm learning that UK =/= RSA.

There were some lovely pieces in this book, but I didn't see anything that I wanted to actually take the time to knit. I'm sure someone else would find this book enjoyable though. The book's set-up was nice and I enjoyed the photo montage of the patterns in the beginning of the book and all the patterns at the end of the book. I would probably recommend.

I loved the design of this book. It was very artistic and the photographs were fantastic. The knitted items were showcased well and the backgrounds for all the pictures were engaging and interesting. I didn't find any particular patterns that I wanted to knit, but I'd still recommend for others.

True to it's title, the patterns are "classic". The kind ot items you can wear for ever- they never go out of style.
There are a couple sweaters I will knit from this book. I've just discovered knitting in the round so these flat- pattern pieced options are't quite as aluring to me right now!
