Why do so many knitwear designers think easy means boring? Almost all of the variety in this book is due to stripes, either with a contrasting yarn or with a purl stitch. But really, nothing is particularly interesting. I'd call this book "very easy" actually. I was sort of drawn to one frog sweater until I realized the frog was appliqued on and the only other thing that I liked about the sweater was the color. That said, nothing is particularly horrible, either, just very, very boring.
So, so, so cute!! These kinds of books make me wish two things. One- that I spent more time knitting than I do reading, and two- that I was much better at knitting than I am. This book is full of cute patterns and generally things I think my daughter would be darling in. Maybe one day I will actually get around to making one of many cute items in this book.
