5 stars (How do you choose just one?) - Don't even open this book unless you have an hour to spend with it. This is a veritable catalog of finishing and edges! Armed with this guide, you'll never be accused of bland knitting! Even new knitters will find creative and easy ways to spice up their projects. Each technique is shown with a swatch, instruction are easy to follow and concise and there are even several sweater and scarf designs included to demonstrate different ways you can ornament your knitting. A wonderful addition to your knitting reference library. 2 stars (Fraught with Mistakes!) - While the designs and photographs in this book are absolutely beautiful, I don't know if any of the reviewers actually tried knitting anything. The book is filled with mistakes and typos! I tried to contact the publisher, but there is no listing in New York for Sixth & Spring Publishing. I finally found a phone number in a knitting magazine.

For instance, if it said "Cast on 9" - when I went to do the first pattern row, the instructions always went past those 9 stitches and I could not complete that first row. I am utterly frustrated and crying out for help. Someone PLEASE H...
