Vintage to Vogue: The Best of Workbasket

Rating:
Summary: Vintage beats vogue
Review: I have to agree with the other reviewer who said the old designs were much better. I couldn't believe it when I saw it. It was almost worse because they put a picture of the original pattern beside the redesign, and you could see exactly how much better you would have liked the other one. I haven't tried any of the patterns in the book yet because they aren't that striking, and also because I'm still feeling bitter that they actually made good designs worse!

Review: I was really looking forward to receiving this book. I had received the Workbasket when I was learning how to knit and crochet and I have many fond memories of it. I am very unhappy with the book. The vintage patterns are reworked for the book and in many cases the vintage were much better. It is too bad that instructions are not included for the vintage as I found several of them to be nicer than the new patterns.
