Beautiful Book with Easy to Understand Directions

I've really enjoyed looking over this book and just added it to my wish list to buy. The directions are very easy to understand and the color pictures are beautiful. A great variety of techniques -- for example it tells you how to do a Frill Cast-On, and also a single frill and a tiered frill. It tells you how to do an I-Cord, and gives you 6 varieties: knotted, 2-color, double twist etc etc.
