A Good Book About CO & BO ?

[Lighting57]

If you were choosing between these two books, which would you select and why? I've had a chance to look through (1) and liked what I saw and how it is illustrated. I have not seen (2). Knit Picks carries both. I’d like to add one of them to my library.

1) Cast On, Bind Off: 54 Step-by-Step Methods by Leslie Ann Bestor

2) Cast On, Bind Off by Cap Sease

If it was me, I'd order both them through the Inter-Library Loan department of my local library. The one closest to me only charges $1.00 per book and I would order both of them so I could see them side by side.

But if that's not possible for you, then I'd have to choose #1. Mostly because the illustrations are photographs of actual hands, not drawings of hands.
