I like this book because it has the type of fashions that I want to knit for my granddaughter's Barbie dolls. It has the retro knits that remind me when I was a young girl when I had Barbie dolls to play with. There is also updated fashions in this book to knit, too. It has different skill levels to accomodate the beginner, and then you can work up to mastering the more skilled knits. The price was right on Ebay compared to the local bookstore to order the book. Thanks for letting do the review. KV

If you already have the crochet book by the same author, you will love having this knitting book. Just as it is with sewing, what better way to learn to knit than for Barbie! If you have small size needles, say, for sock knitting, you are ready to go. It's a beautiful book, in a nice size.
The patterns are great and seem easy to follow. It will be a great way to use up the great leftover yarns I have around here. They will make beautiful gifts for any Barbie doll lover.
I don't know how to Knit, but I love the pictures, they are really neat. Plus, if you do know how to Knit, this book explains alot of things, it teaches you how to Knit clothes for Barbie doll. It would be a great book for even Young kids & Adults who don't know how to Knit, but like Barbie.
I love the patterns but the yarns used in the book are next to impossible to find. The pictures are adorable. My kids love to look at it. Unfortunately they have gotten lots more from it than I have. Look inside before you buy to judge for yourself.
