A Yorkshire Fable: Thirty Knitting Designs

Rating:
Summary: Nicely photographed, some nice sweaters
Review: The book itself is nicely put together, with color and b&w photos of the sweaters. There is at least one sweater in here that will appeal to you, although most are designed for younger women. There are a few for men, none for children. Most are inventive, which is refreshing since Rowan's typical line has styled itself towards the simple with bulky wools, etc. These sweaters take more work, and they are made either with the new line of Yorkshire tweeds or with Rowan magpie. Color photos accompany the instructions. Lots of fun to browse and contemplate, though I haven't made anything from these patterns yet so cannot say if the patterns themselves are easy to use.
