I love to knit small accessories, and hoped that this book would have some nice patterns. But, after flipping through it, there was really nothing new here. I didn't even think the embellishments were that great--nothing that I would need to buy a whole book for.
I give it 3 stars, though, because of the wonderful section on how to recycle yarn from sweaters. I already knew how to do this, but had to figure it out by trial and error. I wish I could have read this section before I started. It would have saved a lot of time.
If you area really interested in embellishing your knits, get a copy of Nicky Epstein's "Knitted Embellishments". There will be plenty there to keep you busy for a very long time.
