Here is what a few people have said about 50 Fabulous Knit Aran Knitting Stitches

"This is an excellent book for learning and using aran/cable stitches. I bought it for my sister-in-law, who is keen to learn cable knitting and was so impressed that I bought a copy for myself! Stitch patterns are well described, with clear photos. I am an experienced knitter who loves to knit arans, so this is a great book for me, too, to add to my library. I would recommend it for anyone who likes to experiment with or extend their knitting skill."

"This book has a great variety of easy to follow stitches written out (I don't do charts)which can be easily worked into your own personal aran projects."

"What a lovely book, would recommend it to anyone who likes knitting cables, lots of patterns to choose from and good instructions."

"Brilliant book, I've knitted up a few already and I haven't found any errors in the patterns I picked. Well worth the money and the results look great."

"Great great book. I've long been a fan of aran and have been knitting for 50 years, but I still found new stitch patterns in here, with nice clear explanations, again, written ones, (I HATE CHARTS!!) and lovely pictures.

Only one issue (Can't call it a criticism because it is a personal opinion). Aran should be done in cream or white to show off the beauty of the stich patterns and I loathe to see them done in colour. But that's just me ......"
