Being a huge fan of knitting; and the various social off-shoot knitting circles that evolve from one of the most unlikely of fiber skills; I naturally had to scoop this one up. And I am so glad I did!This book was great for two reasons:1) the knitting of course; the patterns are fun and quirky (ex. frozen peas; a fun knit icepack cozy to wrap around boo-boos.) but really well done. Joan of Dark and her Roller girls takes their knitting seriously but enjoy every stich.2) The entire aspect; a general history and cultural signifigance of Roller Derby is explained in such a way I was aching to dig out my old skates and join up!Seriously; this book was so much more than I expected. A fun knittng book and a fun Roller Derby book successfully rolled (no pun intended) into one; as unlikely as that may be.23 of 24 people found the following review helpful. Not your mothers knitting bookBy Linda J. DunnThis is so different from the knitting books I remember from 30 years or so ago; when they were boring patterns that assumed everyone lived a Ken and Barbie life. They remind me a little of the Alice Starmore knitting books and especially the Celtic collection in that they explaini a little of the culture in addition to offering knitting patterns from that culture. With the Starmore books I own; theyre all wearing apparrel and sylistic. With these; Ive got some things to wear and a few things to knit for practical uses.Im no roller girl; but I am over 50 and I can see lots of practical uses for some of those injury-related knitting projects. I wish Id had that pea bag pattern when I had knee surgery a couple of years ago.To quote a friend of mine who doesnt knit or like roller derby but who read the book: What a fun book!0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Great content; poor quality reproductionBy NikkiThe patterns themselves were awesome but the book I received was a very cheap reproduction. The paper is poor quality and the bottom of every page is literally cut off. Very disappointed in this quality. But like I said; the content itself is great.
