    Beautiful Pictures, Cute Items, Some Trouble for Beginner

    The items were fantastic and the pictures are amazing -- so beautiful. As a beginner, I did have some difficulty with the directions (wish there were a more illustrations in the step-by-step instructions -- typically there is only one), but I figured it out. I've only made the booties so far, and they stay on wonderfully (even with wiggly babies); however, the pattern only adjusted the length for the different sizes, leaving the width and depth out of proportion. As the mother of a baby and toddler, I don't have a lot of time to experiment, but I do want to try simply copying the pattern at maybe 90% and seeing if the fit is better. Overall, I really love the book.

    Cute but Need More Illustrations

    This book is very well done but the addition of realistic pictures (step-by-step) would make all the difference. I've made the Everything Bag which is adorable (but really large, they should have shown the bag hanging on someone's shoulder.) The difficulty ratings are accurate. Overall, great presentation with lots of different patterns. Great value at just $17 for over 20 different patterns.
