Customers Review: I have never purchased a book on the day it released but this one called to me. I have not yet read it all but I have looked at every page. The photos and descriptions of each pattern are well done, I have yet to see one that makes me question an element of the design. The patterns I have read through seem well written. Now I just need to decide between the 20 beautiful patterns which one I will make first. I will update once I knit one of the patterns. Courtney has done a splendid and creative job with this book! Her designs are amazing and fresh. Her other book, Family Friendly Knits, is great, but this one is more detailed and the designs are brilliant. I love her designs and both of her books belong on the shelf of any serious knitter. Bravo. I ordered Elemental Knits as soon as I saw a photo of the shawl “Cloria” and started knitting it as soon as I received the book! Courtney’s patterns are so well written, the designs are beautiful and understated. The color sketches are inspiring, too. I recommend this book for all skill levels. Absolutely love this book! I’m still learning to knit sweaters and it was so refreshing to see patterns that were easy to read. This is a beautifully designed book. I have yet to knit anything from it but am eyeing the cormac sweater or the aki cowl! This is full of inventive and well-designed items. I can’t say that I will knit EVERYTHING, but unlike most knitting books I browse I can find a ton of things that look knitworthy. Very happy to have this collection on my shelves as a seasoned knitter! The lay out is so beautiful and the charts are really easy to read. I’m so excited to get something on the needles! So creative!
