It's a Matter of Taste
2010/11/9

Living in Texas, I've found that I can knit afghans during only a few winter months. Why? It's often too hot to be working on a large, warm afghan. So when I saw that this book was focused on small blocks that could be joined (in a cold month) to make a large piece, I jumped at it.
Now that I've received the book, I've changed my mind.
Here's my take on "Knitting Block by Block."
PROS:
1. Nicky Epstein's books are always high quality, and this book is no exception. Excellent binding allows the book to remain open where you're working without damaging the spine. Paper is heavy and pleasing to the touch. Color is, as expected, lavish. In fact, color is one of the best parts of an Epstein volume.
2. Patterns and examples are clear, even for a novice knitter. You can see many different types of blocks and follow one of her examples or create your own unique design.
CONS:
1. It's a matter of personal taste, but, after reading through the book several times, I realized that I like knitting as a continuous piece of fabric without seams (where they can be avoided). I do not care for unnecessary seams like those shown in her scarves.
2. Again, it's a matter of taste, but, although I'm usually like a child with her nose pressed against a candy store window, screaming "I want one of those," I did not find many patterns that compelled me to whip out my needles.
3. Although I like the look of cord on knit fabric, I have a personal dislike of sewing my knitting together. I do the assembly grudgingly and have no wish to do more. With many of the designs, I'd be sitting for hours doing something I don't care to do.
OVERALL:
This is a beautiful book that did not please me as much as Epstein's books usually do. If you enjoy hand sewing, if you enjoy stitching knit pieces together, this will be your book. For me, I'll go back to her classic afghan book.
Four stars

Welcome back Nicky Epstein

I am so delighted with this book..Once again Ms. Epstein shows the imagination and inventiveness that makes her my personal favorite knitwear designer. Her last 2 books had REALLY disappointed me because they really were a rehash of her old ideas. Knitting on Top of the World and Knitting a Kiss in Every Stitch just didn't make it for me. I want Ms. Epstein's imagination...not a travel guide to Tuscany...
There are many many blocks in this book...my favorites happen to be the ones with i-cord and ideas of how one might use them...directions call for knitting with Cascade 220 ..a lovely yarn that is not only beautiful, comes in many colors, but is quite affordable.
There are directions for all the blocks as well as for the patterns of garments made using the blocks...
WELCOME BACK, Ms. Epstein....and thank you...

Errata- Knitters Beware
2011/3/17

Working from library copy until mine arrives -- I am making the 35-square afgan (pg 216). NOTE: Color numbers actually refer to Cascade 220, NOT Cascade 220 "Superwash." Superwash color numbers are entirely different. First instruction is to make 17 stockinette stitch blocks in A." Color A is actually an accent color and has insufficient yardage. Instruction should say "Main Color" and should be noted as such in "Materials" paragraph. Beginning knitters might be stymied by these errata before even starting. Even though I like the patterns and overall presentation of this book, I am giving it only three stars due to inadequate editing.Knitting Block by Block: 150 Blocks for Sweaters, Scarves, Bags, Toys, Afghans, and More
