100 Knits
Interweave's Ultimate Pattern Collection
by Interweave Editors

Eye candy for knitters – just amazing with inspiration on every page!

Having knit since I was eight I have tried most stitches and have made many items over the past six decades. The socks I saw make me want to take up knitting needles again. The lace patterns varied from gossamer to slightly more dense. The cable patters were incredible and how they wove in a variety of ways was a delight to see. I have to say that this is not a book for beginners and anyone sitting down to make one of the patterns in this book should bring patience and have time on their hands to work because some of these use small needles, fine yarns and are very intricate so focus and counting will be required. Lovely yarns were used and the photography was a delight. I would love to own this book and add it to my knitting library.

Thank you to NetGalley and F+W Media for the ARC – This is my honest review.

5 Stars

This is such a great collection of patterns! Even if someone isn't looking to make an exact copy, they will find plenty of inspiration within these pages. Great textures, lace work, and shaping make this a great book for knitters.

100 Knits, Interweave's Ultimate Pattern Collection is a beautiful treasury of knitting patterns for all skill levels. Knitters will find the following patterns: 10 hats, 6 socks, 2 scarves, 12 cowls, 12 shawls, 21 cardigans, 26 pullovers/sweaters and 11 tanks and tees. Each pattern is accompanied by colour photos and charts, where necessary. You will also find a descriptive list of the designers whose work is on display in this book. All in all, this is a great book to add to any knitter's library. There is something for everyone here, and the most difficult decision will be where to start. Thank you to F+W Media and NetGalley for an e-ARC in exchange for an honest review.

Great book, great patterns. Some truly inspirational patterns, I particularly love the Lucy hat. I love that the book contains patterns from a range of different creators, it’s a must for anyone that loves to knit.

I have been a huge fan of Interweave Knits books and magazines since I started knitting in 1998. This compendium of 100 patterns from the company's various publications will clear out some much needed space on my bookshelf. I have piles of Interweave Knits magazines dating back to the beginning of my knitterly path to woolly warmth and happiness. I couldn't help buy ooooo and aaaaaah while I flipped through the book and revisited old favorites and finding new patterns to add to my Must Knit List.
I shall be adding a copy of this book to my Christmas list in the hopes Santa will place a hard copy under my tree this year.

It will tide me over until I get my next issue of Interweave Knits in the mail. Off to dream of sugarplums knits and fuzzy warmth as fall rolls in.

This new collection of patterns includes a whopping 500 pages of contemporary garment patterns for hats, shawls, cowls, sweaters, and socks. I was delighted to find a whole section in the back for what the editors call "t-shirts" - lighter weight and either short-sleeved or sleeveless sweaters perfect for those of us in warmer climates.
