Ugliest Projects EVER
1 of 1 people found this review helpful.
My 85 year old grandmother wouldn't be caught dead in any of these frumpy, hideous projects. I believe they are aiming the style at people who can't dress (I'm 30, and I wouldn't even waste my wrist gristle making this stuff,) and who want to make their children roundly laughed at in school. Quite possibly a collection of the most hideous items I've ever seen. I don't think I could make anything in here to be given at a homeless shelter, because I reasonably assume homeless people would rather freeze than wear this stuff.
Also, almost every project is intermediate +, so this is not a beginners book (though I recommend avoiding it at all costs.)
If you like wasting hours of your life to make something so horrid that it would offend anyone if you suggest they wear it, if you like being so out of style that people in their 80's are laughing at you, or if you just like being horrified by fashion faux-pas after fashion faux pas, this is the book for you. If you like knitting beautiful projects, if you like looking fashionable, and if you just like yourself enough not to humiliate yourself through your book purchases as I have with this book, then its NOT the book for you.
Further, not that its anyone's problem in regards to the content of this hideous tome, but I got a softcover book, not a hardcover. Please check with your seller before buying because I checked all of the listings when I wrote this and they are all for hardcovers.
