These adorable projects for toddlers are both easy and completely irresistible! Whimsical designs in bright, cheerful colors are a snap to knit because they're based on the simplest stitches. *... This description may be from another edition of this product.
The photographs of the items in this book are like looking at the beautiful cakes and pastries in a bakery... but without the calories. The outfits, beanies, and booties are toooooo adorable. However, what really makes this book worth every cent I paid are the straightforward instructions and the tips that accompany each project. I am tempted to make some of the four pointed beanies for myself. They are beautiful and festive... I can't say enough about this book. I just hope Mrs. Ware comes up with another publication as beautiful and creative as this. Enjoy!
As the saying goes, you can't be too rich, or Too Cute!

I love the colors, patterns and easy to follow instructions of this "How to" book. The author takes the idea behind those fruit and vegetable hats for babies to a playful new height of toddler sophistication. With all those great colors of yarn, I am looking forward to the adult version to brighten up my own closet. A great maternity gift or for anyone who is looking for the Next Best Thing.

Yes, the designs are adorable, creative, and a reflection of the author's artistic sensibility. They are also fairly easy to execute. What I appreciate most are the practical tips sprinkled throughout. When the book arrived, I was in the midst of a project for an adult. Still, I was able to immediately apply some of the author's suggestions -- with excellent results. This book is a 'must have' for the serious knitter with little ones in the periphery.
Knitting with ease and pleasure;the perfect combination

I've been a knitter for about 30 years.I knit mostly for toddlers and babies,I find these sizes to be most fun as I am not bound by too many "rules".When I saw this book the cover jumped out at me. The sweater is great, the colors fantastic and the whole look, well, just fun!I opened the book with great excitement and was thrilled to find designs that I will love making. I'm famaliar with cotton classic yarn and know how beautifully designs made with this yarn turn out.The layout of the book is excellent. I like having the directions for each sweater presented with the picture of each sweater.The print is easy to read and the photographs are wonderful.You can tell that Miss Ware has read a lot of knitting books, because she goes out of her way to make hers NOT like many others.Her directions are clear and concise;coupled with the graphs for the different images, this makes for a very happy knitting experience.I look forward to many a happy project with "TOO CUTE"I also look forward to Miss Wares next book.

From the first glance you can see that these children's sweaters, hats, booties, etc.are original and wonderful, but most importantly Ms. Ware gives you the starting off point to be creative and make the work your own. The book design is clean and clear, the photograghs terrific, and the whole book is too cute!
