book review: Astounding Knits!: 101 Spectacular Knitted Creations and Daring Feats by Lela Nargi

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This is a fabulous little inspiration book for knitters & crocheters alike. Any crafter worth her salt will recongize at least some of the projects within this book (like the infamous yarn bombed bus & tree, projects that are overshared within the craft world over & over again), but there is so much in here - 101 projects to be exact - that there will be something new for everyone to enjoy. From tiny, tiny sweaters smaller than your finger, to a giant flag knitted with machines (and not a knitting machine, either), this book is a great inspiration.

I'd also recommend buying this book for the loved ones in your life who just don't get why you knit or crochet.

mini review

Things I Learned From Knitting (whether I wanted to or not)Things I Learned From Knitting by Stephanie Pearl-McPhee
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Another fluffy book, that I read in about an hour & a half. Another book you'd only enjoy if you were a knitter!
