Lousie Walker is a young up and coming UK designer, professional knitter and blogger at www.sincerelylouise.blogspot.co.uk. Review "Some of the patterns are brilliant. For example, the 'tigerskin' rug is a masterpiece." --Wendy Knits "If you like animals and want to knit some animal-inspired items for your home or to wear without actually harming any animals, this book has a lot of great ideas. Some of these might be fun for kids who are fans of animals, too." --About.com/Knitting "I love when people do interesting things with knitting!
