A good offering... - By: Richard Madgin, 26 May 2008 
Let's be honest... there aren't many knitting books out there that are either aimed at male knitters or aimed at women who want a book of things to knit for their man.
In my opinion the patterns in this book are good... not amazing... but good none the less. I certainly think that if you know any male knitters who don't already own this book, that it would be a well-received gift.
If you're a female knitter looking to knit something for your man then you may get away with side-stepping the "boyfriend - jumper" curse by knitting something a little more funky from this book.
The style of the book is fun too, & the craft is presented in a positive manner. As long as you bear in mind that it's unlikely that out of a book of 45 patterns that you will like them alll... then I feel this is a book that would sit well in most people's collections.
Sweater love - By: K. Roycroft, 25 Mar 2008 
I bought this book as I have enjoyed others in the series of SnB books. I was disappointed with the crochet designs as I thought they were a little uninspiring & basic. But, overalll this book is a winner with me as I love the sweater patterns. The book has many of them & there are beautiful variations of classic & modern themes with lots of interesting stitches to play with. There is a reallly useful section at the beginning of the book about re-sizing, so I'm planning to alter a lot of these patterns so I can make them to fit me. My boyfriend will have a long wait before he gets a sweater of his own!

Are you kidding? Who would make this stuff??? - By: KatrinaK, 13 Nov 2007 
Cutesy names is what this book is counting on for you to purchase. Retropolitan Cardigan - what modern male would wear this Mr. Rogers like cardigan. If it was the 80s maybe.
I think the publisher is trying anything to make a revival of the one hit wonder.
