This was cute, but unfortunately the ebook was not well-formatted. I have no idea why the publisher would release such a poor version!

Grumpy Cat - the beloved internet sensation knows that no cat lover can go without publicizing their adoration for their feline idols.  Luckily for us humans, there is this new book full of projects for ourselves and our feline friends.  If you can knit, this book is for you.   Many of the projects are easy enough that even beginning knitters will be pleased with the results.  The instructions are clearly written - a must for any craft book.  Yarn suggestions are included as well.  

Whether you are looking to create feline wearables for yourself or to make toys and accessories for your cats, Grumpy Cat’s Knitting Nightmares is a great selection.  

5/5

I received a copy of Grumpy Cat’s Knitting Nightmares from the publisher and netgalley.com in exchange for an honest review.

Not impressed. I love cats and I love knitting, so this should have been a match made in heaven. The first few patterns were for rubbish items that I wouldn't even be for the charity bin. The patterns rely on grumpy cat and aren't that complex - worth having a go at doing the colour chart yourself, rather than buying the book. Thumbs down from me.

A fun collection of knits perfect for any fan of Grumpy Cat. (However, if you're not a fan of Grumpy Cat, I'd probably give this collection a miss, as there aren't likely to be very many patterns you'd be interested in).

The patterns are all well laid out with good instructions and clear charts and diagrams where relevant. As a minor (k)nitpick I would have liked to see the patterns list weight of yarn used, instead of just specific yarn brands - that would make it easier to substitute yarn. Happily it does list yardage though, so between that and the gauge, you're pretty well off regardless.

I could NOT get my book to open, very disappointed! I really wanted to make something out of the book to post along with the review but it is impossible
