If this was the only book of knitting patterns I ever purchased, it would be enough to last a lifetime. The pictures are clear and the author adds commentary to the different sections and to most of the patterns. This is helpful in choosing the appropriate pattern for the project.

A lot of patterns in this book had been published before, notably by Burda, Harmony guides and Mon Tricot. Burda pattern books are highly superior, because they provide excellent charted instructions (as I have seen in the two last Treasuries, Ms. Walker does not really understand how knitting charts should be made, so perhaps it is better that she sticks to basic text). Mon Tricot books contain also text, but in a more messy format, and often with mistakes, so here Barbara Walker does a better job. Harmony is so similar as to look almost like a reprint. Of course, we know that SOME patterns will be reprinted, so no big deal, and it is very convenient to have them in one book and not in three or four. Altogether, though, I would not miss this book terribly much.
But if you are unfamiliar with other books I quote this one should be very instructive, so I still give it three stars.

So many fabulous designs - all well photographed and explained. An excellent book for any knitter!

My sister, knitting for 50 years, advised me that this would be the one most valuable book I could buy with my moderate knitting experience. The number of patterns described in the book is breath taking. The simple organization of the book is appreciated. The author's prose and content are superb, leaving the reader wanting for more information on the history of knitting.

This is by far my favorite stitch pattern book. The pictures are great (even though they are grey and white). The only down side is that none are written in charts. Would be nice to have some of them written this way too.
