This is a physically beautiful book, but I cannot figure out why it had to be so heavy. It is surely the weight of 2 hardcovers its size. And weight matters. The year on a fiber farm is very interesting, even if you are not all that interested in sheep, yarn, or fiber arts. I thought even the explanations of the how's and why's of haying were worth reading. The photos were lovely, but I've never seen a book with lots of photos that did not have captioning. Never realized it mattered so much. The author, who is a good writer, added patterns, which were nice. They'd certainly have to be copied as it would be inconvenient trying to follow patterns in such a heavy book. Though it may not seem like it, I really do recommend this book especially if you are a knitter or crocheter.
