Am I really the first comment? Cool. I am looking forward to this book immensely. The first book was so useful and I look forward to more of the same.

I really, really, like your first book. I liked the fact that most of the patterns in it are great on their own but provide great inspiration for going off on our own.

Can't wait for the second one to come out.

Thanks for sharing your talents with us.

Um, found one error already - on page 43, two charts for X-Large. It's clear to me that the first one (middle of the right column) should have been 'Large', but it's also clear that it's the same as the one for 'X-Large' in the bottom left corner.

Oh, and I love the cardigan cozy. Only two skeins of 'crack for knitters' ....

I have heard that the authors will be at the Brooklyn Public Library (Grand Army Plaza) on October 21. Is this so?
