5.0 out of 5 stars Easy to follow, great pics!, March 27, 2004
This review is from: Knits from the Heart: Quick Projects for Generous Giving (Paperback)
I'm a beginning knitter, and usually have trouble following a written instruction method - but Kristin write her book in a style that made it easy to follow, with basic explanations for each term used.

I loved the bright colorful photos in the book, and thought that the array of patterns covered a lot of very useful ground!

I especially liked the premise of the book, that the projects make great gifts (they do!) and that they're quick.

Great job Kristin!

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful book!, June 5, 2004
This review is from: Knits from the Heart: Quick Projects for Generous Giving (Paperback)
I was hesitant about buying this book at first. I wasn't sure there would be any projects that I would enjoy, and so I put off purchasing it. I'm glad I finally got it! It's absolutely fabulous, filled with easy projects that are quick and attractive. I also liked that there are various charities listed that accept knitted items as donations. I highly recommend this book!

5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful and Fun Projects, February 9, 2005
By KB (Portland, OR) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Knits from the Heart: Quick Projects for Generous Giving (Paperback)
What could be a better combination than knitting and giving? If you have ever felt a little guilty for snuggling up for an extra hour or two with some yarn that you just had to have, now you can knit with conscience. The projects are cute, quick and fun to knit. The directions are clear. It's perfect for charity knitting (It even tells you which charities would like your gifts.) and children, teens and pets especially appreciate the projects.
