MY THOUGHTS:

Cozy Knits is a treat for any knitter who loves to try something new. These smaller projects will be done in no time and one will enjoy learning something new as well as having a lovely finished item at the end.

The book is filled with patterns from some of my favorite designers: Nancy Bush, Dawn Brocco, Donna Druchunas, Lily M. Chin, Anna Zilboorg plus many others. The patterns are not only beautiful and well written, but there are also charts included for colorwork, etc. I cannot comment on the charts as my review copy did not included them, however, the instructions are clear and easy to understand. 

Cozy Knits is a gorgeous book filled with beautiful photographs and lovely patterns that will be demanding calling out to you to make them. It would be perfect for any knitter's library!!!

I received a copy of this book through Edelweiss+. I was not required to post a positive review - but one of my honest opinion.
