Barb Brown presents many nice patterns and ideas in this knitting book. The text is clear and readable, the instructions are straightforward, the patterns really help the knitter create the pattern, and the pictures of the finished products are well done. Taking the usual knitting book one step up, Brown provides instructions not just for knitting knee-highs, but also for knitting regular socks and leg warmers, too, with the same patterns as the knee-highs. The options are endless!
Not for a beginner or those faint of heart, these patterns require skill, dexterity and lots of patience to complete. But, the reward of knitting socks from one of these creative patterns will definitely be worth it when you wear them and others want you to knit them a pair, too.
I would recommend this book to anyone who is an accomplished knitter, to someone who is looking for new ideas or for a new spin on something old.
(The publisher has provided me with a complimentary copy of this book through BookSneeze® so that I may review the book.)
