    Not Your Ordinary Knitting Book
  

*by A***R on Reviewed in the United States on October 9, 2013*

This is a book for knitting gourmands, not for those looking for a mid-day snack. Written by one of knitting's foremost designers, it is a book for the discerning knitter, the one who wants to see what's behind most knitting patterns, who might even be interested in designing patterns herself. Jean Frost explores the texture, weight, drape, flow and design of what comes off your needles and thoughtfully assesses it for structure, durability and beauty. The stitches in this book are specifically designed for tailored garments, which require a certain stability and forthrightness. If you're looking for patterns you can follow without thought to their origins, buy something else. But if you really want to understand the fit and fashion of your garment, want to explore taste and texture, want to be able to mix and match instructions, this is the book for you.  The presentations are thoughtful, the instructions impeccable and the photography beautiful.

    just a stitchionary ... no more, no less
  

*by M***G on Reviewed in the United States on September 30, 2013*

This book sounded perfect -- a catalog of stitches for making jacket-like fabric.  And while this book does in fact have some glorious stitch-looks-like-fabric stitches in the book ... and they are beautifully and clearly photographed ... and they do have clear directions (both written and charted) ... the book lacks a certain "oomph".  There is little assistance or notes about ways to use these fabrics to make jackets (guess you have to buy her other books for that) and I was a bit disappointed in the overall feel of the book:  it felt chintzy and not worth the price (almost like XRX tried to take a magazine article and stretch the content to fill a 144 page book; I don't think I'd pay full retail for this one.That all said, I will put it in my kniting library for creating dense, woven-fabric knitting.  It's unique enough ... just wish it had been meatier.

    Jean Frost is terrific
  

*by M***Y on Reviewed in the United States on January 16, 2014*

I love Jean Frost designs, and her explanations are clear and very workable.  I can produce what she designs through her guidance.  I'm thrilled with this book.  Thank you very much.
