Review by Booklist Review

A trio of British imports, including Sara Sinaguglia's Simple Crochet and Alexandra Smith's Simple Sewing with Lola Nova (both 2013), proves that creativity knows no geographic boundaries. In a series called Creative Makers, each author tackles the how-to's of one discipline, whether crocheting, knitting, or sewing. Using roughly the same formats, the books cover the basics materials, equipment, and fundamental stitches then present anywhere from 25 to 35 patterns ready to be copied. Sounds pretty standardized? Not really. Each showcases the designer's personality and style. In this entry, Londoner Badger exudes cosmopolitanness and urbanity in her selections of knit garments: an unusually shaped ear hat, Mary Jane slippers, and a darned attractive (and easy-to-fashion) dog coat.--Jacobs, Barbara Copyright 2010 Booklist
