Review: You will probably want to make everything in this fabulous book, (The Marc Jacobs coat is my favorite) and - YOU CAN! With clear, easy to follow instructions, each of the chic items in this book could be made angst-free, even if you're a relatively inexperienced knitter. My only quarrel was that I can't find a lot of the yarns (even suggested substitutes)in my local yarn shops or even on the 'net. Your best bet is to find something you like in the same gauge, and just be very careful about checking your gauge before you proceed. Regardless of that small, technical difficulty, you will find plenty of things to keep you busy. I was also inspired to design some sweaters of my own, based on some of the patterns in this book (e.g., the Chanel-style cardigan). There are several patterns in here from big-name designers, including the aforementioned Marc Jacobs (designing for Perry Ellis) and Calvin Klein. The sweaters for men are cool, too. Unlike most menswear patterns, I think your real-life guy might actually wear these.
