Customer Reviews

Lost for words...
Such a great book! Attention to detail, fantastic shaping techniques...I was a little worried that the two big projects were not included in the book (Gothlet end Elfin Bride) but Jen will e-mail the patterns to the book purchasers now that they are fully finished...just need to register on her website! Finished 2 hats already and can't wait to start on my next project. Perfect handbag size, funky designs and good (refresher) course on some techniques...absolutely LOVE it!

Fab, Fab, Fab!
Just got my copy today, and have fallen in love with it. It leans towards a Goth theme, but with over 20 patterns, there seems to be something in this book for everyone. From hats to coats, jumpers to jewellery, the patterns are rated from easy to difficult, with plenty of guidance and photos to help you along. It covers adding zippers and teaches you how to correct your mistakes.
I should have bought two copies, as I think I may wear this one out from use.

Great patterns!
My wife had a great time with this book. Most of the patterns were extremely enjoyable to both of us. My only complaint is with the knitted handcuffs. If sadomasochism is your game then there is no substitute for heavy-duty titanium. While Doreen's mango chutney goes beyond anything Sharwoods have to offer, there are some places where home-made just doesn't cut it.
