I was not expecting this book.  I was expecting the usual embroidery book.  But this book was both a knitting and an embroidery book.  It talked about styles and materials.  It talked about how to use embroidery to upcycle old or used clothes.  And then it went into full knitting patterns and embroidery.   Being that the author talked about how she came to embroidery by way of knitting, I should have expected it, and I didn’t.  It makes this a truly unique book that will check out lots in libraries.
