If you’re a cable knitter, this book would be PERFECT for you. Every single design in this book is stunning. There’s cable pullovers, tees, cardigans—any kind of top you’re looking for!
The organization of this book is more theme-based rather than garment type. It has the following sections: fashion forward, oversized & chunky, simple & clean, and light & breathable. The simple & clean section is my favorite, but I can see myself making something from all of the sections.
The patterns are size inclusive, include schematics and construction notes, and have clear charts. I like how it clearly identifies yarn weight too, instead of listing a yarn I’ve never heard of. It also has a technique section with detailed, full-color photos.
All in all, this is a beautiful and useful book. I think it’s great for the advanced beginner and beyond who loves cable knitting!
Thank you, Page Street Publishing, for the review copy!

This is one of the most inclusive cable knit book/collection I’ve seen.
I tested the Gingko Pullover, and I absolutely love it. The super bulky yarn was absolutely perfect.
I highly recommend this book for all knitting levels, Joan is incredible, as an author, designer, and knitter. If you have someone in your life that you need a gift for; get this book!

I love that all of these cute patterns are size inclusive. YAY!
There are a lot of bulky yarn knits and only one DK and nothing smaller than that (which is what I prefer to work with) but I decided not the dock a star for that because it's a personal preference.
