Great purchase!!!!
This book was a gift for one of my closest friends who enjoys knitting. She absolutely adored the book. I thought it would be more of a coffee table book, but she was already working on one of the shawls in the book the day after she got it. Whether you need hobbitt slippers or a star trek dress.... I would highly recommend!
