If I had to be picky about the book it's that it's really written for the North American market, with many of the phrases not being in common use in the UK - what we in the UK call casting off is binding off for instance. But - there's no reason now why I shouldn't buy patterns from across the Atlantic. I'll certainly be able to approach them with confidence. It's a book to keep handy in your work bag - you might be as surprised as I was about how much you'll learn.
I've never tried knitting with wire, but if you'd like some unusual jewellry have a look at [[Wire Knits by Heather Kingsley-Heath]]. If you'd like to make some fairy tale knits have a look at [[Fiona Goble's Fairy Tale Knits: 20 Enchanting Characters to Make by Fiona Goble]]. If you'd like some fun, try [[Knit 2 Socks in 1 by Safiyyah Talley]].
