"In her latest book, Danish knitting expert Hoxbro goes beyond
domino knitting and explores space and shape in other kinds of
modular knitting. ... The directions are clearly written and Hoxbro
seems to anticipate questions that might arise ... each pattern is
thoroughly explained and well-illustrated. ... Her stated goal is
for knitters to use the book to play and experiment further, and
she has given us the tools and inspiration we need."--Mary Skoy for
Norwegian Textile Letter
