Rating:  Summary: Sweaters by hand; designs for spinners and knitters Review: I was impressed with this book for two reasons:1. It 's about knitting sweaters from handspun yarn, and since I'm learning to spin-I found much inspiration/information on type of fiber and exactly how to spin (in detail) for each sweater. The instructions were very thorough on how they created their yarns for each and every sweater. 2.The designs were beautiful, interesting without being over complicated. It challenged me to take my time with each process of sweater design, paying attention to detail, with the end goal of creating the perfect sweater with the perfect yarn for that sweater. Each sweater was unique and deserved unique, individual attention through the whole process from choosing the fiber, to the final knitting of the garment. I would highly reccamend for a beginning knitter/spinner first sweater book, or for an advanced knitter who wants a new challenge: learning to spin and work with handspun.
