Excellent for charity knitting

I got this book at the library and liked it enough to buy it (at the discounted price). I'm an experienced knitter who makes mittens for charities, so it doesn't matter what size the finished mitten is - someone will have warm hands. I agree that there should be a row gauge, and sizes for child/woman/man for all the patterns would have been nice. However, it's great to have several sizes within each category. I'm giving it 4 stars because I like the format & the pattern choices -- for my charity knitting, this book is perfect., But it could definitely be better written, especially for beginning knitters. As an added thought: knitting up a sample swatch (which I personally don't enjoy!) is always a good idea. You can use your swatch measurements with the suggested finished sizes provided (or measure the hand the mitten is intended for!) to find out if your finished mitten will be the correct length. Most patterns can accommodate extra rows (or take out a few), even when you're doing a complicated Fair Isle design. Or you can use a slightly smaller or larger needle. Just be sure to make your swatch in the PATTERN that you'll be using -- whether it's cables, ribbing, or 2-color work.

Keeping fingers warm and have fun too!

Great book for visuals, methods, sizing and great instructions. Easy to modify most patterns to suit your own particular needs. Great Addition to a home knitting library!

Excellent book

I love the patterns in this book and the way the book is laid out. The directions are easy to follow. I especially like the charts letting you choose other yarn, gauge, and size of mitten. I really dislike it when a pattern calls for one size yarn and I want to use another. This book helps you avoid that.
