Oh my goodness...just beautiful patterns! The patterns are clear and well-written, with easy-to-read charts. The finished products are my aesthetic completely, and the pictures in the book show them off very well, without being over the top or fussy.

Put this book in your library. All the patterns are beautful with pictures showing details. The instructions are clear and concise. They are both charted and fully written out. Patterns included are shawls, hats, mittens, leg warmers, gorgeous sweaters, and even a headband. Best book of Patterns I have seen in a long time. A beginner or an experienced knitter will enjoy this book.

I love the overall look of all of these patterns. Plus, they include pictures to explain techniques that come up. That doesn't always happen, so I'm impressed.

Sometimes a luxury yarn should take center stage. These patterns -- from socks to sweaters, shawls and mitts to hats and a throw -- are simple enough to keep the spotlight on the yarn. 

The patterns are simple and mostly made with heavy weight yarns, so they knit up fast. Simple lace and cable stitches add texture and special style, but they're not too hard for a beginner. Great for gifts, too.

Stitch patterns are generally given in chart form and written out in traditional knitting pattern fashion. The layout of the patterns makes it easy to follow the patterns and to find the right stitch instructions when needed. Notes about the pattern, clear legends for the charts, and detailed information about the materials needed mean that you don't have to flip back and forth through the book. It's all designed for relaxing knitting. 

The patterns are pretty and trendy. Those that require fitting are offered in lots of sizes -- from 28" to 56" bust, though not every sweater has all those sizes. A little bit of texture stitch or a panel of lace adds style to the sweaters, but the shapes are simple.

The photos are glamorous, in neutral colors and natural settings. Not only is this a great book for beginning and advanced knitters, but it's the perfect gift book for a friend who wishes she could knit.

Knitters are always on the look for books with timeless patterns that are easy to knit, this title by Plum Dandi Knits hits all the right spots. Quick to knit beautiful patterns that will be used for years are featured in beautiful photography.

A sumptuous, gorgeously photographed book with knitting patterns of all designs. Although relatively simple and straightforward to knit, the choice of top quality yarns make each garment something special.
Very highly recommended.

It is so rare to find a book of patterns that truly encompasses women of multiple sizes.  The sweaters in this book go range from 31" to 55" bust in most cases.  All of the patterns are easy to follow and are beautiful.  Any area that is charted is also written out.  The 22 patterns include hats, scarves, cowls, sweaters, leg warmers, shawls and mittens.  There's a mix of everything...they even put in a beautiful blanket pattern.

There's a great, fully illustrated glossary of terms at the back of the book, too, which is convenient because then you are not searching the web mid-project to attempt to remember how to do something.

I love this book! It's cozy, encouraging, and simple in a sophisticated and nourishing way.  Anyone who enjoys quiet solitary pursuits and scrumptious simple pleasures will enjoy. It's also really cost-effective in terms of number of designs per dollar. Many pattern books ask too much for too little and of the few patterns, many are hideous or impractical. Not only does this book have a sizeable number of knits, they are accessible and beautiful. No funky, fashion-manic knits here! I have ear-marked most of these patterns as "must-make" and the patterns look very simple to follow. I'm excited!

I received a DIGITAL Advance Reader Copy of this book from #NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

Polished knits. Plush yarns. Perfect match.

Sometimes nature's most beautiful details are the perfect inspiration for creating simple yet luxurious knits. In Plum Dandi Knits, Alicia Plummer and Melissa Schaschwary--designers, friends, and leaders of the much-love Plum Dandi group on Ravelry--bring you 23 projects that reflect and react to the natural world with a sumptuous twist of plush fibers, feminine accents, and stylish comfort.

Lace that mimics soft forest foliage or the numerous tassels of a pine tree. Textured patterns that call to mind a babbling brook or waterfall. Thick wool shawls and sweaters knit in anticipation of blustery cold days ahead. The uncomplicated pieces in this collection, knit in soft, luxe yarns, are soothing complements to slowing down and settling into peaceful moments. Wherever you seek stillness and calm, Plum Dandi Knits will help take you there.

These are some seriously gorgeous patterns that are beautifully photographed – I just hope that I can make them with some less-expensive wools or yarns so that I can afford to make them!  Gorgeous book for the knit-wits in your life!!

Beautiful, the pictures and the patterns. The photographer did a really excellent job capturing the essence of the knitwear. Also, the patterns are very clear and well written. Alicia Plummer has been one of my favorite designers for a long time, and she doesn't disappoint with this book!
