Summary: Glorious Knits
Review: Book arrived in condition as stated and within a week of being ordered. I couldn't have been more pleased. Also, had several e-mails back and forth concerning another matter and Allen couldn't have been more gracious. I wouldn't hesitate to order from them again.

Review: Kaffe Fassett has taken inspiration for his patterns from the world around him, walls, roofs, food, the sky, you name it he's considered it for one of his patterns.
The results of some of these considerations are 35 patterns of easy wearing clothes that are easy on the eyes as well. Beautiful color combinations on charted designs make the clothes visually appealing as well as tactically from the yarn that is suggested.
And that's the only drawback I see with this book, if you don't use the recommended yarn, some of which is quite expensive, you don't get the color shadings shown in the book. The garments are still attractive and comfy but just not quite what I'd hoped for. Still, due to the design and attractive charting, I'll be knitting other items from the book.
