Editorial Reviews
From Booklist
The editors of Vogue Knitting magazinehave gone back into the archives and found 40 shawl designs that will challenge and excite knitters. As many knitters know, the patterns found in the magazine are not, for the most part, easy. The good news here is that shawls, with their simple and finite construction, are the kind of project even beginners can finish. Still, the patterns themselves, especially those featuring lace designs, are intricate and involved. (A key at the top of each page measures difficulty, but at times these seem optimistic.) Unlike some of the knitting books that come from the Vogue stable, this one is oversize with full-color photographs that allow browsers to get a sense of what the finished product will look like. The directions, written on pure white pages, are also well spaced and thus easy to read. Charts, sometimes used instead of written directions, are also clear. Back matter includes techniques and abbreviations. --Ilene Cooper
