Review by Booklist Review

Knitters are often looking for quick projects that don't require a significant monetary investment in yarn. This collection (previously published as 100 Little Knitted Gifts to Make, 2016) is a compilation of selected projects from the 16 books in the Twenty to Make series and includes a variety of hats, wristlets, stuffed toys, tea cozies, boot cuffs, replicas of plants and foods, scarves, baby booties, and assorted household and crafty items. Patterns will be accessible to beginner to intermediate knitters and all are written (with an occasional chart for items with colorwork). Each project features at least one color photograph of the finished object in which the stitch detail can easily be inspected. Most projects require no more than two balls of yarn and should take no more than a handful of hours (some far less) to complete. A brief introductory guide provides some fundamental information on gauge, abbreviations, and selected types of stitches and techniques, but does not include detailed instructions on how to knit. The finished projects are by turns serviceable, cute, and amusing.--Anne Heidemann Copyright 2019 Booklist
