Brave New Knits: 26 Projects and Personalities from the Knitting Blogosphere

Turjoman invited 26 of her favorite knit bloggers to contribute patterns to this collection. The first section includes a variety of sweater patterns in various styles, and the second section focuses on knitted accessories. There are some big names here Ysolda Teague, Connie Chang Chinchio, Anne Hanson, Stefanie Japel, and Clara Parkes, among others and, surprisingly, none of the patterns are the throwaways prominent designers often contribute to books that aren't their own. Given the diversity and quality of the designers represented, there's something in this book for everyone. An excellent introduction to the world of knit blogging. (Library Journal)
