A Must Have for the Moebius technique!

I accidentally purchased this volume before the first one, having already played around with the Moebius. Its brilliant, and I've made and felted 2 of the projects already, with a couple more started - so its good value for money! Its very easy to understand, plenty of photos for technique, and her writing style is easy to read, so this is not too hard for the novice, like myself, who likes a challenge. Best of all, its good fun. 10/10

This book inspired my husband to buy me yarn!

This is the first knitting book I've bought which my husband wants to read. He made the paper Moebius model with me and that got him hooked. So here I am trying to knit my first Moebius scarf while he keeps walking off with the book because he wants to read about all the Moebius things Cat Bordhi has come up with. Lucky the knitting is so easy after getting past the first round or I'd have to chase him to get my book back! Yesterday he came home from work late looking sheepish (no this is not a joke) with his hands behind his back holding something. He handed me three skeins of Manos yarn for knitting three Moebius baskets. Believe me this is very funny because normally I have to hide my yarn purchases from him. If you buy this book just follow the directions step by step for the cast on and first round. I really had no idea what I was doing since it didn't seem like it could work but her directions are very very clear and complete and if you put your faith in them they will get you right into Moebious-land! Not only that but this book is so beautiful to look at and read!

It's the best book yet by Cat

If you want truly unique, this is the book for you! Cat has outdone herself in this book. I couldn't put down the first book of Magical Knitting and this one is even better. Cat beds and baskets, just to name a few. Her instructions are so easy to follow, it's as if she is in the room with you, chatting away while you make these gorgeous, unique objects of art. Her style of Moebius is absolutely addictive and so easy. It is not like any other moebius instruction. The long, one needle cast on is so easy, the results truly beautiful gifts you can be proud to give. I have made so many scarves and am working on the beds, boots and baskets. You will love this book if you are looking for something different. Also check out Cat's Socks Soar on Two Circular Needles. It is the greatest! No more fighting with double points to make gorgeous socks. I had to buy an extra copy for my friend who kept borrowing mine!

My cats are meowing for a magical bed!

You've just got to see this new book! In all my 35 years of knitting and crocheting I have never, and I mean never, seen anything like it. It's like a knitting tornado has picked me up and carried me off. I'm knitting up a slew of these Mossy Moebius Baskets for my grandkids for Easter, and one extra big one for myself just to have around to throw things into. My cats keep looking over my shoulder, giving me the squinty-eye, saying Meow! When are ya goin ta start knittin me one a them cat beds in that thar book? You've just got to see this fine book for yourself. Right now I'm pondering whether to do the Knitters Bowl with all the pouches for me next or listen to my cats. Those cats will probably jump right in the knitters bowl if I don't make them a bed first, so guess that's what I'd best do.

More Magic From Cat!!!!

I just received this book today and all I can say is WOW! I reviewed her other books, and love all of them. This one is fabulous with the cat beds, purses and knitting needle cases and bowls. Well worth the money, you won't regret this purchase and if you don't have the first treasury then you NEED to pick it up as well.
