4.0 out of 5 stars Great ideas for mixing yarns, August 25, 2006

G. Peterson - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: The Yarn Stash Workbook: Great Ideas and Dozens of Projects (Paperback)

The book has some great ideas, both specific and general, for mixing small-ish quantities of different yarns. Some patterns call for several skeins of a given yarn, which might not fit everyone's "stash" profile; but I found many projects so appealing that I'd augment what I already have with new yarn I'd buy, just to create the piece. Definitely has a unique place in my knitting book library!

4.0 out of 5 stars Ideas with simple stitches for using up your stash, October 21, 2006

S. Sur "Beads of Glass" (Los Angeles, CA United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: The Yarn Stash Workbook: Great Ideas and Dozens of Projects (Paperback)

I liked this book because the instructions are simple, and the ideas practical for using up leftover or odds and ends yarns you might have.

I like instructions that are one or two lines, and suggestions for organizing the stash by color and weight so you can see what might work together.

And she talks about new novelty yarns that are hard to use due to their unpredictable gauge when knit up.

If you are an expert knitter there is nothing here that you don't know, but if you are a beginner with lots of impulse yarn buys, this book may get you to use them up.

very good book to have - esp if you have a large stash of yarn. Most designs are appealing and can't be found in other sources
