When I was a girl in the 1950s my Mom made crocheted collars for herself and her sisters, and the occasional one for one of us girls. I had not thought about them for years until the unflappable RBG became a household persona. The cover of this book brings back so many memories~! For the experienced knitter, these instructions are simply followed and makes what looks like a ton of work simple to execute. I love the idea of this simply executed yoke. Thank you, Kerry Bogert, for bringing back this awesome style. I now have the confidence to make these 15 yoked sweaters OR just yoked collars! I received a free electronic copy of this how-to book from Netgalley, Kerry Bogert and Interweave. Thank you all for sharing your hard work with me. I have read this book of my own volition, and this review reflects my personal opinion of this work.
