 This book has a lot of mistakes! October 14, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I wish they would check the measurements they recommend for the various ages. They don't make sense: at least in one case, the instructions had two huge mistakes. I wasted A LOT of time due to this. Don't waste your money, and specially don't waste your time.
 Great projects July 15, 2008
I had already seen this book since a friend had it, so I knew I'd like it. The projects are easy enough but not overly simple-looking. They make great gifts. Patterns are clearly written and the book also has instructions for some of the techniques. Very cute babies,too. I was disappointed to find some of the Debbie Bliss yarns they recommend have already been discontinued, but there are lots of great yarns out there to substitute.
simple and modern yet classic patterns March 4, 2008
This is a wonderful book. Instructions are clear. There are many patterns that are beautiful and simple and modern and wearable and you can adapt them to your own preference of color and yarn. My daughter, since around age 1 has LOVED this book. Makes a great baby picture book.
Well Written February 1, 2008
Debbie's instructions for these patterns are very detailed and easy to understand. I made the baby shrug in two nights-- following her path to the letter. The sizes run "generous" to a little big, but that is appropriate to a rapidly growing baby. I look forward to using many of these timeless patterns over and over and perhaps add some small embellishments of my own. A wonderful buy.
I absolutely love this book January 26, 2008
This book is great. I've four months pregnant and after making a bunch of afghans I saw this book in the book store and thought I'd give knitting baby clothes a try even though my knitting experience was pretty much limited to scarves and hats. The instructions are very clear and in the last two weeks I've made two sweaters, the little bear and two pairs of booties. If you have a little bit of knitting experience you should definitely be able to knit the patterns in this book. And they're super cute.
