Book Reviews of Fitted Knits: 25 Projects for the Fashionable Knitter
Book Review: This book could change the way you knit
Summary: 5 Stars
I've considered books with "top down" patterns in the past but never having knit using the method before I've always been a little apprehensive of the technique. I bought this book on the basis of the beautiful front cover photo and have knit one of the sweater designs already. If the ease and speed with which I've been able to produce a finished product is anything to go by I may be tempted to switch to top down knitting in the round permanently.
The book covers a variety of designs (all for women) from a beautiful lace panelled bustier to a dress and a business suit. A couple of the sweater designs, whilst pretty and shapley are quite similar, but the purpose of this book is to encourage knitters to tailor the designs to their own body shapes and tastes. A confident knitter armed with a glossary of stitch patterns could easily make more unique items from Stefanie's simple and flattering designs.
