Tight fitting patterns for small skinny people.
That stated, there are quite of few really cute patterns that I'll be trying out as there are larger sizes added to each pattern. Thank you author and editor!

The reason I gave it as many stars as I did was because the garmets are stunning, HOWEVER, all the patterns are crap. The publisher should not have printed it until the problems in the patterns were corrected. They completly had to re-write the seeded-cables cardigan and even then teh chart is still wrong on one of the higher rows.
Liked the patterns in this book so well I bought it twice (without knowing it) and gave the extra copy to my best friend, who also loves it.
Modern and gorgeous patterns! Easy to follow instructions. I'm about halfway through knitting the Sayuri sweater.
Many interesting designs but at least one project uses yarn that may be hard to find.
The designs in Sensual Knits are simply beautiful.
didnt like it
Some of the patterns in this book were gorgeous, obviously very time-consuming items. The book had a nice design and all the knitted items had good photographs that illustrated what they would look like. I just didn't find anything in this book that I wanted to knit and so that's why it got this rating. I'd probably recommend though.

I'm in the process of making the seeded cables cardigan right now :) It will take me forever as I am officially ADD when it comes to knitting :)
Very awesome, wearable patterns in this book. Almost everything is circular-knit on circular needles.
