I picked this book up at my college bookstore while I was getting my textbooks. This book is a wonderful and surprising find. I love all the ways to make your knitted projects sparkle and stand out.

Most of the embellishments are beautiful and the directions are easy to follow with pictures that show important parts of the steps and the finished product which is a G-d send (I always end up with the pattern that just shows the finished project and I feel like I'm stuck up the creek without a paddle). My friend and I were just oooing and ahhhing over some of the lovely projects in this book.

The only reason I'm giving it a four out of five is because some of the embellishments on the example projects look a little tacky (to me, a twenty year old woman). Most of the embellishments are lovely and really add something special to the piece. Overall this is a book that I'll use and enjoy for a long time to come.
