(Paperback - 2ND, REVISED & EXPANDED)
This book teaches creative knitting. Sweaters are knit in one piece -- no seams! -- to the knitter's own set of measurements, enabling knitters to use even hand-spun yarns that never seem to fit a predetermined gauge. The Sweater Workshop provides an alternative for those who wish to knit sweaters of their own designs. The rewards are well-fitting, perfectly constructed seamless sweaters knit from any yarn.

August 05, 2008: This book is great for anyone who has trouble following patterns for sweaters for any reason. I recommend that you knit the sampler before tackling any of the sweater suggestions though, it's a great way to learn techniques without having to worry about a wearable project. While most of the sweater designs are rather dated, the book teaches you how to tweak any design to get the sweater you want. A fabulous find for knitters who are bored, frustrated, or just looking for a new pattern.
