Customer Review: From this book you would think that only white Waspy people knit in America. Pictures are absolutely beautiful. There are interesting articles about Meg Swansen, Barbara Walker, but many more important American knitters are left out (like where is Lily Chin?) It is an enjoyable coffee table book,... more info
