Summary: Finished! My knitting progresses.
Review: Excellent photos. Straight forward instructions. This book is exactly what I needed. It's been the next best thing to having someone's shoulder to look over and watch as they finished a sweater.I also loved the extras. Embroidery, knitted leaves and flowers, making your own buttons, zippers, pockets, shaping techniques -- and I finlly understand short rows! This is a nice companion book to my Vogue Reference because it's so focused and expands on exactly the techniques I need as an intermediate knitter as I try to broaden and refine my techniques. I have looked at the other finishing books. This is the first one I HAD to have. I would have been happy to buy this book had there been no patterns, but they are a very nice bonus, particularly the women's fully fashioned sweaters. Simple and sophisticated with great details. The cardigan I just finished looks MUCH better than my last sweater as I used the things in this book to finish it.
