"I would love to knit this, but I don't know a man who would wear it. I love that classic, almost formal look but the styles (at least of the men I know) tend to be much more relaxed unless they're in business suits. We have lost something along the way!"

"I still can't get it!! Page says URL prohibited!!! I really want this because my daughter had one of each together as pets and they loved each other!! The bunny passed and her work took her away so she found a good farm for the duck to go live!! She misses them both,sorely!!"

"Such a classic sweater top. Love the color combinations as they as perfect colors for this Spring. The instructions are easy to follow and they also include an enlarged stitching graph. Several others have commented that they do not see a picture of this sweater, but I can see it with no problems."
Hippie Chick
"This top is perfect for a fancy dinner date or hitting a club with friends. It has a fitted body that flows smoothly up to a high neck collar that buttons in the back. It has delicate lace on the front that adds to the soft femininity. The smooth back adds a conservative contrast to the lacy front."

Talented knitting designer Anna Hrachovec delivers cute and quirky creations, yet again, with her latest release: Super-Scary Mochimochi: 20+ Cute & Creepy Creatures To Knit.  While described as super-scary, these little knit critters are nothing short of adorable.  From the classic monsters like the teenage werewolf (p. 53), to the unexpected toaster ghost (p. 106), this group of more than 20 patterns is a must-have book for knitters who appreciate Hrachovec's creative imagination.  While it's challenging to pick a favorite — Hrachovec's patterns each top the design featured previously as you turn the pages, delving deeper into her imagination —  the Sour Tooth (p.89) definitely makes it to my top three.  After all, who could resist a giant tooth, with baby teeth, holding a lollipop? 

 

Aside from the eccentric designs already created by Hrachovec, don't think the fun ends there.  Once the reader gets a feel for knitting up itty bitty monsters, Hrachovec lets you invent your own minions with the Mix 'n' Match monsters section starting on p. 110.  Here you'll be able to pick and choose your favorite features from each of the monsters and make your own unique, super-scary critter companion. 

 

The verdict: Highly recommended, especially if you're a fan of author Anna Hrachovec's previous work.

Hard to say as I can't get past an ad for an obnoxious search engine.
