Summary: Very well written, great illus. and pictures. Inspiring.
Comment: This is the most clearly written knitting book I've ever read. Anna Zilboorg is also an inspiring writer and the pictures are just as inspiring and beautiful as the writing. The mittens that are the end product are terrific. Even if you've never wanted to knit mittens before, you'll love this book.

Rating: 5
Summary: Fun, fun, and more fun!
Comment: I loved the illustrations, instructions and all of the color. So far, three pairs of these marvelously cuffed mittens have been produced and are awaiting delivery to their respective homes. The cast on was fun, and knitting from the finger tips interesting. I am sure I will wear the binding of this book out.

Summary: Pretty good book
Comment: I wanted to rate it 4 and 1/2 stars.

I like this book. It has lots of patterns good for other small items like hats and socks. It has a good explanation of the "toe-up" (or I should say, "top down") method of knitting, much better, in fact than the explanation in her sock book. Her other directions are fairly clear as well.

The only real drawback to this book is that you will have to make a copy of the basic instructions (which appear only at the front of the book, not with each pattern), and a copy of the chart for the particular pattern you're knitting because this is too big a book to comfortably carry around with you.
