The Cable Knitter's Guide is a nice mix of 50 cable patters, stitch-dictionary style, along with 25 patterns for garments, accessories and household items. The crisp yarn and great photography really show the cable swatches; instructions for the cables are given in both text and chart form. Intermediate-level knitters will feel comfortable tackling these projects. This cable book is different in one way from many other how-to books: In the glossary section, rather than simply having definitions of the cables with a drawing or photo, the publisher has included QR codes. Aim your tablet or smartphone at the QR code, and it will take you to a silent YouTube video of the technique. You may find this fascinating and useful, or you may prefer old-school illustrations, but it's an interesting way to combine paper book "technology" with modern technology. -- Creative Knitting Magazine.
