I love it. Maybe I was the one who said that it was going out of print. Not sure if I mentioned that on my blog or not, but I have heard that from a supplier. They will not run another English language printing, but I think there are a few left still. I got mine from Norway and when they bought it for me, the sales girl (young) was rolling her eyes that anybody would want something so old. I am really glad you like it so much. Those sweaters will take a long time to make, but I would like to make a big enveloping coat! I just got that book myself, about a month ago. I love it.

I got it back the other day from Kathryn who babysat it while I was in Congo. I really am not buying any yarn soon! (But I might be swayed. Let me know when the knitalong starts. Actually there is a stranded knitting KAL...) This book is not only inspiration and instruction, but it's a coffee table book. It's beautifully done, and I like to think that even a non-knitter would enjoy it. I bought mine from Amazon (hangs guilty head) but the price was very good, and I had a certificate...and it said at the time that it was the last one! What could I do?
