Vogue Knitting Accessorize: Scarves, Hats, Ponchos, Socks & Mittens

Summary: Read Editorial Review first
Review: I didn't buy this book because I read the editorial review first - seeing that it said "patterns from the archives...".

It's a nice idea and some people actually want a bound collection of past patterns some don't.

Summary: Duplicated patterns
Review: I was looking forward to this book so much, but I was vastly disappointed. At least half of the patterns in this book are reprinted from other Vogue Knitting books that I already own. I give it three stars because I am upset that I spent the money on this book and nowhere does it state that these are not new designs and have been reprinted from their other books. However, if you do not own any of the other books and you are only interested in accessories then you will probably enjoy this book.

Summary: Beautiful patterns-expensive yarns
Review: If you are looking for a book with beautiful, sophisticated accessories, and you have the money to buy expensive yarns this book is for you. I love the designs, but I can't really afford to make many of the items. Many of them could easily cost you more than $100. I don't know about anyone else, but if I had that much money to spend on a simple, knitted accessory I would probably be buying it from a famous designer rather than making myself.
