Here's a knitting book that has it all: a clever, overarching theme; a wide variety of good-looking projects; easily understood instructions, and beautiful illustrations... A pretty much perfect craft book. ~Booklist, starred review
Reading through the essays and the patterns I feel like I am transported to the local coffee shop, sitting with other knitting friends... You can work on the smaller or easier projects the next time you meet up with friends or take along a more challenging project and work together to figure out the finer details. ~Marly Bird
Alongside the patterns are essays by some of the patterns creators telling how they became knitters or what knitting communities mean to them. ~Sascha Darlington
The photos are beautiful and definitely evoke a coffee house feeling. The essays throughout the book were a nice complement to the patterns and enjoyable to read. ~Read or To Read
