Amazon.com link for Top-Notch Knits by Martingale & Company
This is a pattern-packed book with something for everyone. Divided into sections:
Scarves shawls & wraps
Tanks tees & shells
Pullovers
Cardigans & Jackets
Thirty-three patterns in all! Fourteen of the patterns are labeled easy or for beginner knitters, and nineteen are for intermediate or advanced knitters.
The easy color-block shell with the cotton yarn looks pretty and comfortable. There is a lovely cashmere/silk blend lace scarf for the more advanced knitter. My favorite is the shark fin tank which I think I could hand knit the bottom border and then put on my knitting machine to finish. There is also a draped mock neck tank that would be perfect for the knitting machine or by hand. There are a few to make with bulky knits for a faster project.
There are nice large photographs of each of the finished projects. The instructions are well-written and easy to follow. The number and variety of patterns are what make this book so appealing.
