Only read half of it. I'd like to check it out again later.

[Rebekah]

Does contain good tips but I do not like the organization of the book. Many a time I've spent 10 minutes searching for one tip I remembered reading before. It shouldn't take a person that long!

[Amy]

Would be good for people who like to (or want to learn to) hand knit.

[Mckinley]

The title is a stretch. It's a collection of write in tips and advice from knitters. No patterns.

[Martha]

simple, inexpensive, practical ideas
