Customer Reviews

Great compilation!
This calendar is a wonderful collection of designs. There's something for everyone here - scarves, gloves, shawls, sweaters, hats, blankets, baby items, AND even more unique items like knit cup warmers and teddy bears! The sturdy box they are stored in is also really nice for storage and organization. I found that there was a nice variety of projects, ranging from a beginner level to some that were much more advanced. I can't imagine trying to make all these patterns in just a year, but it's so much fun going through it and marking my favorites! This product is an unbelievable bargain and would also make a great gift for any of your knitter pals.

So many patterns!
Each year I can't wait to get my hands on the latest edition of this calendar --it's great! It's so rare to find so many projects in one place. There's a great mix of quick knits--scarves, hats and bags--as well as more time-consuming projects like afghans.

Slight, only slight improvement
I do feel that this calendar has been an improvement to the 2007 and especially to the 2008 calendars--but soley due to the contributions from crystal palace yarns, bernat and lion brand. As Tami had mentioned a large portion of the yarns are free online. I do enjoy getting it just for the sake of inspiration, and not knowing what project(s) I want to try next. It is also humorous at times to see the kitschy things other knitters create. Although it is not a great calendar, I also have been looking deeper into the patterns for techniques and learning more about various fibers and yarns.
