Book Reviews of No Sheep for You: Knit Happy with Cotton, Silk, Linen, Hemp, Bamboo & Other Delights

Book Review: Much more than I expected
Summary: 5 Stars

I discovered Amy Singer through (...), and have enjoyed reading her blog for some time. When I saw she'd brought out a book about knitting with non-wool yarns I was interested to find out what she had to say about how different non-wools behave. I wasn't expecting anything in particular from the patterns.

Well, I was right about the yarn information - certainly at first glance that looks excellent, with descriptions of the different kinds of yarn available, as well as comparisons of their properties.

Add to this superb patterns, and I'm blown away. I really don't need anything more on my "must knit" list, but I've acquired a whole pile with this book...
