Summary: Another good back-up stitch treasury
Comment: Stitch directories are wonderful tools for the knitter who wants to venture away from strict pattern following. Even advanced beginners can fall in love with a yarn and want to make a scarf or another non-fitted garment with a stitch (or several) that make the work the knitter's own design.
So where does this book fit in? If you're just starting a knitting library, you're probably better off buying one of the "big" knitting how to books (such as Vogue Knitting) which has a section on stitches. The next step, IMHO, is one (or all three) of Barbara Walker's wonderful stitch treasuries. The photos are black and white but the instructions are clear. (And, we just heard on the knit list that a fourth treasury is in the works!). This book (and it's companion volumes) are a logical next step. I enjoy them primarily for the excellent color photography. There are some patterns that are simply much more appealing in color.
As for comparing this book with volumes 2 and 4.... This book is strong on unusual cables and lace patterns. It also has many pages of slip-stitch and color work. For shawl and afgan fans, there's a solid section of edgings.
Bottom line: A good reference for knitters looking for the second dozen books in their libraries, but not a must.
