A great book but wasted on me as I don't have the kind of dedication or meticulousness to follow through. I'm in too much of a hurry and just want my projects finished quickly and without too much angst or difficulty.

I wish this book was less about designing just sweaters and more about design in general, but a lot of the ideas and techniques discussed can be adapted to fit other sorts of designs. There's a lot o good information even if you don't want to only create sweaters.
