We are now in week 2 of our mini series. Let's get started!
So if you've read my past blog posts, you can tell that I'm really excited about this title. It's my favorite pattern book that I have (but then again, I only have 4 pattern books). The designs are so cute, and I love flipping through it to see all of the cute animals made from super-soft yarn.

Here is the cover of 50 Yards of fun:
1) Is it suitable for beginners?
For people who are just learning how to knit? Honestly, no. Like I said in previous posts, the book contains clear instructions. But, it doesn't have any photo tutorials showing you how to knit the different stitches (which is just the way some books are). If you know how to knit in the round and pick up stitches, than this book is for you.
2) I an quite advance when I comes to knitting stuffed animals. Will I learn anything from this book?
It depends on how advance you are. I learned quite a few new techniques from this book, but you might already know them. However, there are a lot of things in this book, so you are bound to learn something new (like I said, depending on how advance you are).
3) What are the pros and cons of this book?
There are a whole lot' of pros (with one or two cons)
Pros:
1) This book contains clear, easy-to-follow instructions.
2) It contains 36 patterns, which use lots of different techniques, meaning there is something for every knitter.
3) The outcome is absolutely adorable!
Cons:
1) Not all of the techniques you need to know are in the book. Rebecca Danger did create a large amount of videos showing lots of different techniques, and they can be found here.
