'This book is the perfect complement when you just feel like knitting stockinette or garter stitch, but you want your finished piece to look anything but ordinary. 150 edgings, most knit lengthwise and applied to knitting, would make the simplest hat or blanket sparkle. I have several baby gifts to make in a short period of time and I’m thinking they’ll all be sporting a trim or two from this book.'--Knitty.com
