Great compilation!
This calendar is a wonderful collection of designs. There's something for everyone here - scarves, gloves, shawls, sweaters, hats, blankets, baby items, AND even more unique items like knit cup warmers and teddy bears! The sturdy box they are stored in is also really nice for storage and organization. I found that there was a nice variety of projects, ranging from a beginner level to some that were much more advanced. I can't imagine trying to make all these patterns in just a year, but it's so much fun going through it and marking my favorites! This product is an unbelievable bargain and would also make a great gift for any of your knitter pals.

So many patterns!
Each year I can't wait to get my hands on the latest edition of this calendar --it's great! It's so rare to find so many projects in one place. There's a great mix of quick knits--scarves, hats and bags--as well as more time-consuming projects like afghans.

Patterns are online for free
I was quite disappointed to see that a lot, probably at least 60%, of the patterns found in this calendar are available online for free. However, I was happy to see that the yarns are a bit more accessible than in year's past. I wouldn't bother spending the money on this, just visit Bernat's or Lion Brand Yarn's website for the free patterns.
