If you are as in love with your knifty knitters as I am, Loom Crafts with Knifty Knitting by Provo Craft with designs by Shannon Erling is a must have.  It contains  94 pages of knifty knitter projects.

The book contains a variety of stitches, such as tube, panel, ribbed, and altered ribbed.
It also has directions for finishing stitches like gathered, matress seam and a hidden seam.

The projects are listed in four major categories:

Babies and Toddlers with projects like Chick Blanket, Baby's First Quilt, Toddler Sweater and Toy Bag.

Cuddle Up
includes Girl's Shrug, Afghan Shawl, and Mommie and Me Blanket.

Let's Play
has fun stuff to make like Broom Horse, Pirate Costume and Dress Up.

Family Crafts,
the last category contains some nice projects, that I think would make cute gifts like Journal Bookcover, Sleepover Crafts and Candle and Bottle Toppers.

22 Fun projects in all!!

The book retails for $14.99 to $19.99

Pros

Beautiful and fun projects
Stitch and finishing stitch directions
Full color photos of finished projects
Each project contains a full supply list and instructions

Cons


Not good for a beginner.
The more elaborate stitches can be intimidating for those just starting out.

Wow I will have to see if my library has that book. It sounds like something I would like to learn how to do. Thanks for the great review!
