### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    good basic introduction to gansey knitting
  

*by M***R on Reviewed in the United States on December 7, 2007*

I own this author's earlier work in German on this subject plus several other books  no longer available.  She begins with a  short history followed by information on gussets and shaped armholes. The information on how to begin a sweater is well illustrated. The first two sweaters are easy ones followed by 5 more very beautiful sweaters all of which have charts and schematics.  The last half of the book is devoted to the various patterns also well illustrated and with charts. Finally initials are charted out and yarn sources and a short bibliography. The only problem I can see is that the sweaters in the book are knit with German yarns which might be hard to find so the author has suggested American and English yarns which she says will work in these patterns. In general the yarns used are special for these sweaters. They are generally dk weight but they are knit up tighter on smaller needles so the knitter has to get her gauge first in order to make them properly. However, the yarns made in England  are the traditional ones so hopefully there won't be any problems. There are two other books on Amazon on this topic: Knitting ganseys by Beth Brown-Reinsel and Gladys Thompson Patterns for guernseys, jerseys and arans. While both of them are very good this one seems  easier for the beginner to this topic so I  highly recommend it. The book is very well printed with nice color photos throughout.

    if its listed as new it needs to be new . clean cover and with out scratches
  

*by S***W on Reviewed in the United States on April 19, 2019*

I would have given this book a 5 star except that the cover had sticker glue left on the front cover and feelable scratches . and was listed in new condition.
