Love this book! I have made several of the afghans in this book and everyone wants one. Great instructions and different options if you like to knit, crochet or create fabric in other ways. It's great because it has a retro feel that you can build your own ideas from and either make them more modern by using different colors or keep them as they are and impart a feeling of tradition to your work.
