The designs in this wonderful book for knitters are exquisite. There are 75 knitted square blocks that have been showcased in a colourful and simple manner.Each block comes with a visual image, a graph guide and easy to follow instructions. These can be made into blankets, throws, cushions and so much more. I even saw a coat made from gorgeous blocks, which was quite something and such a chic and inspiring project idea. There is a fabulous project section which includes a birdcage cover. It's divine.The flowers included vary, Hydrangeas, Crocus, Poppies and so many more, the iris is my favourite, and to make them more unique, some are even 3-D.Because the blocks are small projects, this would be a great book for a beginner knitter.Like every good project book, there is a basic stitch guide and a how to. The technique section also tells you what tools are needed, advice on yarn and what the abbreviations mean.I love this book, it is simple to understand and the blocks are beautiful.
