from Workman Publishing Company
Price: $11.16
Customer Review:
This is the first book I have purchased in my efforts to learn how to knit. I enjoy the history of knitting and the pictures of all the tools but I think more pictures/drawings would be useful. I bought an accessories pack but have never used it because I don't know how. I might have to find a... more info | 4.5 / 5.0

This was an okay calendar, but not what I expected it to be. One can simply go to YH blog to get the 'quirky' w/o spending a dime, and that's what I will do next time. | 4.0 / 5.0

| 9. |  | The Big-Ass Book of Crafts
from Simon Spotlight Entertainment
Price: $13.57
Customer Review:
The only thing really good about this book is the title.
Almost everything in it is tacky and doesn't work well for anyone past college-aged.
The book seems to be geared towards people with little craft experience and no sense of style. It's good for people who want 'character' and have... more info | 4.5 / 5.0
