Just love this book! Originally borrowed a copy from the library and was so delighted, I decided to buy a copy. If you want to knit a blanket and want some ideas for more interesting squares than the usual garter stitch,,then this is full of great patterns. Some quite simple, others more complicated but providing you have the basic skills, you'll be okay. Highly recommend.
