Book Review: Seven Things that can “Make or Break” a Sweater

Margaret Fisher Designs web site

Seven Things that can “Make or Break” a Sweater is based on a class that Margaret E Fisher started teaching in 2000. The book covers a lot of those nagging little decisions that always come up during the knitting of a sweater starting with which side of the cast on should be the right side. She also provides help with increases, decreases, blocking, picking up stitches and buttonholes. The book is really geared for knitters that already know the techniques, but need a little help applying those techniques as appropriate to different projects. The best part about the book is that all of the techniques are covered by 7 sweater patterns included in the back of the book. That way, knitters can be working on a project that requires these techniques as they move through the book.
