I love this book. I noticed that it is (was)out in 'calendar' form for the Holidays. Purchasing it is in my plans. Instructions are fairly easy to follow. And if you get 'inspiration' from others work, then this book would be a fun 'read' for you!

Checked this out of the library. I will probably check it out again. Some great stuff to add to knitting!

There are so many gorgeous flower patterns in this book! Any knitting book that Nicky Epstein puts out I am eager to get my hands on. The patterns are magnificant and breathe-taking.

I can easily see them being accent pieces on hats, scarves, or sweaters. If you are a fan of knitted embellishments you should definitely check this book out.

disappointed that complicated techniques not illustrated; knitted 6 flowers successfully; many flowers do not warrant the complicated techniques where something very similar can be achieved in a much simpler fashion

Knitted flowers just aren't as cool as chrochet flowers. This book had nice pictures, but nothing to make it stand out as a book anyone needs.
