When I received the book, I was really very pleasantly surprised. I love simple lines, and this book is filled with wearable pieces that would look good on many different body types. My two favorites are Marly's cover sweater:
and Amy Polcyn's "Make Me Blush."
Both are simple and elegant, with clean lines. Definite wardrobe staples.
Moving on, there is a great section up front on sizing sweaters to fit, and whatever size you are, it's absolutely worth a read. This book is headed straight to my reference shelf. I know; I was going to give it away, but I find I can't part with it! How's that for an endorsement? ;)
My only complaint is that the smallest size is a 1x. I would have loved a greater size range, but that can be solved by using a different gauge. Because really? I must have these two sweaters. Must. Have. Them.
You can purchase the book at Annie's Attic.
looks brilliant. Have preordered for when it's available in the UK
ReplyDeleteInteresting, but not practical since I'm nowhere near a 1x. Might try to check it out at the library to read the sizing info. Thanks for the tip! :-)
ReplyDeleteThis looks like a book for me. I hope I can find it at Stiches.
