EZ is a must read April 9, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
If you knit you are missing something if you haven't read EZ's books yet. They are all wonderful--you will learn about knitting and EZ's wonderful philosophy of life. You don't need to knit her patterns (and nonpatterns) but you will learn about knitting.

A Good Zimmermann Book March 24, 2008 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
I bought this for my mother for Christmas and she thinks it's great. A Zimmermann clasic. It's a good book for both knitters and non-knitters.
Beautiful patterns February 20, 2008 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
As usual, Elizabeth Zimmerman presents knitting in a fun, helpful way. The patterns are beautiful. Yet, if they're not exactly what you want, she gives hints on how to make them your own, limited only by your own creativity. Thanks to EZ, I've dared take my own knitting to places I never would've dreamed. She gave me the courage to try different things; sometimes failing, but more often designing patterns that exceeded my wildest dreams. Thank you Elizabeth Zimmerman. You've made me the knitter I am today.
absorbing stuff January 27, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Everyone has raved about EZ and I resisted for a while until it too difficult to ignore any longer. So, I decided that the Knitter's Almanac would be my first EZ. It is like sitting next to a favorite aunt who takes knitting as a total creative experience to be considered and worked on as though you were creating something for yourself and not because someone has written a pattern and decreed how it should be. You can take this spirit and feel liberated in a way. I shall probably buy another book about working in the round.....
