Knitting Cowlettes by Safiyyah Talley
Book starts with foreword and why cowlettes are explained.
Love the full page colors and textures of the cowlettes shown. The book advises you to choose your own story, pick the yarns, patterns and needles to begin. They guide you along the way.
Stitches and everything you need to know how to knit are explained in detail and pictures.
There are tips along the way in a gray box that are very helpful.
Each pattern starts out with a title and summary of the cowlette. Includes finished measurements, shape, gauge, notes used in pattern, yarn, needle size, and notions.
Patterns themselves are easy for anyone to accomplish and the rows are listed so you won't get lost.
Pictures of the completed item are also included. Some of the pictures are very dark along with dark background. Wish these had been taken outside, even on a gray day they would've popped the texture of the cowlettes.
Love that the cowlettes are NOT only for women but men and kids as well.
I have a hard time deciding which I want to start with first. So many to choose from.
Enjoyed this book, easy to understand and follow along.
Received this review copy from Storey Publishing via NetGalley and this is my honest opinion.
