So disappointed in simple designs made time consuming.
Noro yarn is beautiful as are these blankets. But I was disappointed with many of the patterns. A blanket or throw (at least in my house) gets used. They’re flung over the back of comfy chairs, dropped over someone asleep on the sofa, or tucked around my lap & feet while I knit. They are not spread out flat on a bed or over the seat & back of the sofa. So what has that got to do with the patterns? Too many of the designs consist of simple elements (squares or rectangles) knit at an angle. With yarn as beautiful as Noro, why make the knitting more complex than it needs to be? In use, it’s the blanket’s color and texture that matters, not fussy corners or everything knit at angles. On the other hand, the blanket designs with hearts, stars, leaves (wow) are definitely worth extra time and concentration to knit. My suggestion is that, if you already have a Noro magazine pattern for a blanket that you really like, start with that. If you enjoy that, maybe you’ll enjoy more of this book.

Tantalizing colors used in mostly easy-to-complete designs
Most designs presented are fairly easily accomplished by beginning/intermediate knitter. Instructions & materials needed are clear. Range of designs spark imagination for combining elements from several designs in blankets, pillow or various apparel items, such as vests/sweaters/coats/jackets. Stunning colors of Noro yarns help titillate the imagination & combination possibilities. Well worth investment!

My Aunt liked it
Got it for my Aunt, and she really liked it. All of her knitting books destroyed in hurricane Harvey, and though she is a talented knitter, she must have a book to follow ir she just can't handle it. We ordered the color thread she wants to use as they were out locally

Interesting and easy blankets to knit with Noro yarns
These patterns are all beautiful. I really love the yarns and the lovely colors they come in. The blankets look complicated but are not. Get the book if you love the Noro yarns like I do.
