Title: Knit Your Own Dog: The Second Litter: 25 More Pedigree Pooches
Author: Sally Muir, Joanna Osborne
Publication Date: TPB:2012
Publisher: Black Dog & Leventhal Publishers, Inc., NY
Page Count: 176
Book Dimensions(ht. x w.): 6 3/4" x 8 1/2"
ISBN: 9781579129316
PATTERN RATING: Every pattern is well detailed and picks up the formation and characteristics of the breed it represents so to be instantly recognizable. These are marvelous!
INSTRUCTION RATING: Instructions are well broken down but are in very fine print and brown ink(rather than black) making them harder to read. I don't care. Instructions for putting your knit pieces together are pretty sketchy and without back-up illustration. I still don't care. These are patterns for someone who already knows the basics of knitting.
SUMMARY- These are not meant as toys for younger children, though most could be made child safe I would think. I was astonished at the cleverness of the designs and fine detail they were able to imbue in these designs. I will happily buy all their books sight unseen - these are really top shelf books.
