A Colorful Presentation of Knitwear,
By "embossed" (USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Rudgyard Story: Hand Knitting Collection (Paperback)
In my opinion, the author has used many colurful combination of yarns within her designs, yet she has implemented common patterns within her designs. This book would be good for a beginning knitter, to help the knitter gain confidence in knitting with different yarn combinations. However, for experienced knitters, especially those knitters who work with fair isle, or searches for many other unique designs, they would find this book a bit boring.

Colour Wonderful,
By Ann Jones (Yarmouth, Nova Scotia Canada) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Rudgyard Story: Hand Knitting Collection (Paperback)
This is a terrific book with very modern and imaginative patterns. I am an experienced knitter, love fine yarns and textured knitting and this book met all of my needs. What I most liked was the modern stylish garments you can make. Although I have been knitting for over 45 years, my 30 something daughter has just become interested in the medium. We both found projects that were interesting, challenging and that we were both proud to wear. No pattern in the book is this book is "the-same-old-same-old". The use of colour combinations and interesting yarns mixes made each project a joy to the fingers and the mind. I always enjoy Jo Sharp knitting patterns and this book did not disappoint. Even if you don't knit any of the projects - just looking at the beautiful pictures and dreaming should get your creative juices flowing.
