"New England Knits" by Cecily Glowik MacDonald and Melissa LaBarre

I've been waiting for this book to come out. There have been teasers featuring photos of the projects floating arount the Internet for awhile now.

Most of the patterns feature Classic Elite yarns, which are very nice and come in lovely subdued colors. There are a variety of projects -- hats, mittens as well as sweaters that are elegant in their simplicity.

I'll write more after I've actually started a project. :-)
