Comment: This book is fantastic. I'm a textile designer in knitwear and this book is great for different ideas and inspiration. Its fantastic for beginners and also for the experienced knitter. You can never know too much.

Summary: Color
Comment: The stitches in this book are very interesting and many are quite unusual. My only gripe is that some of the colors are so dark that you can't see the stitch very well. I already have another stitch pattern book in which only a cream colored yarn was used. At first, I thought, "How boring!" But now I see what a big difference it makes when deciphering the patterns. However, many of the patterns in this book are for multiple colors, making the use of dark colors essential. I think the variety in this book and Volume 3 (I've never seen volume 1) is terrific and I recommend these books to anyone who loves experimenting with yarns and stitches in her original garment patterns.

Summary: A good back up stitch guide
Comment: As a knitter advances past the "blind following" of patterns, a good stitch directory is an invaluable item for designing patterns -- even if it's just the pattern for a scarf. This is one of several stitch directories in my library. It isn't my favorite but I still use it regularly.
What I like about this book is the photography of the samples. Other books may (and often do) explain the actual working of the pattern better (Barbara Walker's Treasuries come to mind) but you have to be attracted to a pattern/stitch to even want to try it. This is a very good resource when looking for a stitch that strikes your fancy.
Of the various volume in this series, this is certainly the most useful for everyday knitting. The other books have some neat fancy stuff but when it comes to relatively basic stitches, this is a handy book to have on the shelf.
