I'm rewriting this review entirely because at first glance I was unimpressed but after some usage I have decided I do like the book quite a bit. Items include a very open granny poncho, cute hat with braids which can be deleted, very attractive scarf with 12 grannies in one line, ugly skirt in orange and green, bright baby blankie, evening bag, girl's bolero, capelet with grannies at the bottom, pillow (on cover), shrug in Noro Kureyon, tote bag, summer sun hat in cotton, circle bag, another baby blankie in one variegated color, pendant, rings, rectangle tote, cropped cardigan with grannies on one color and trim in a second, Amish afghan which is one huge granny. My favorites are the hats, scarf, bolero and baby blankies but the shrug interests me if I change it to have a front as well. The patterns are all easy or intermediate with one exception and the yarns are also reasonably priced. REcommended.

4.0 out of 5 stars grannies knitting on the go, October 15, 2010

"On the go" is the optimal phrase here. A small colletion of grannie squares and their respective projects in a small carry-on book. I found it to be a quick study and an even quicker project finder for someone who may not have the time it takes to knit or crochet a large project. Grannies are an expedient method of getting a project done when you only have a few minutes at a time to work on it. I would recommend it to anyone who has a full schedule and still manages to squeeze in a little hobby time into their busy day. The projects are simple and doable leaving the crafter with a sense of accomplishment and the desire to continue doing more of them. The projects themselves make for a nice gift if you so choose.
