"I have been knitting for 52 years and there is something very wrong with these directions. Has anyone been able to get past the first pattern row? I have taken it out so many times the yarn is wore out."

"You have to click on "click here for knitting pattern", in green to be taken to the page that has the pattern."

"The Sl1K. K2tog. psso will actually decrease it by 2 stitches you slip a stitch as if to knit, then knit 2 together, then pass that slipped stitch over. So it first decreases by 1 when you knit the two stitches together because 2 become one. Then when you pass that slipped stitch over the stitch where you knit the two together then OFF the needle you have decreased that slipped stitch too. So that decrease takes off two stitches which makes up for the two increases (yfwd) in the repeating pattern."

If you're anything like me, then you've always been drawn to vintage styles.  I also tend to lean towards the funkier — and sometimes just plain weird — styles, but nothing compares to that classic piece in my closet that I can pair with anything!  For all the classic women out there who see the value (and beauty) in a sturdy and stylish cardigan, this collection of 25 charming patterns is meant for you.  

 

Inside, knitters are treated to gorgeous photos and patterns for everything a gal needs, including sweaters, tops, jackets, hats, scarves and even mittens.  Each pattern features elegant details, flattering shaping and a refreshing modern twist.  Author Lene Holme Samsøe explains, "If you're crazy about knitting, you already know that creating a knitted garment is the perfect antidote to the busy lives we lead."  So, if you find yourself in dire need of a knitting break, just pick up one of the quick and simple patterns from Essentially Feminine Knits. And if you're looking for a larger project to keep yourself busy, this book has a multitude of long cable cardigans to appease you!

Looks like an interesting book. I have a HUGE collection of knitting books and magazines--which I find online, through book clubs or on sale at local book stores. I thought this was purely a review? Where do you all get the 'giveaway' or 'contest' idea from? Seems to me the book was being reviewed only, or am I missing some vital info? She gave the weblink for the book too, so I'll check there first. :)
