Review by Library Journal Review

Montgomerie (The Knitter's Yarn Palette) explores all things knitting in this comprehensive guide. All of the basic techniques are covered, including multiple cast-ons, bind-offs and increases, colorwork, lace, and aran knitting. An assortment of projects, from beginning to advanced, allows knitters to practice what they learn, and a stitch dictionary rounds out the collection. VERDICT This fine general knitting reference is comparable to the excellent (and ten-year-old) Vogue Knitting: The Ultimate Knitting Book, but with the addition of projects. (c) Copyright 2012.
