Book Review – Wanderlust: 46 Modern Knits for Bohemian Style

I am absolutely in love with the boho style and this book “Wanderlust: 46 Modern Knits for Bohemian Style” looks like it was made for me. The book explores 46 new knitting patterns that celebrate bohemian style, which is something I absolutely adore.

The book is filled with a wide range of knitting projects, including knit cowls, scarves, shawls, hats, mittens, and sweaters. I love how the patterns range from easy garter stitch and stockinette to pretty lace patterns, chunky cables, simple colorwork and more, making it perfect for knitters of all skill levels. The patterns are perfect for knitted gifts and I can’t wait to make some for my loved ones.

I also appreciate that the knitting designs in Wanderlust are made with 100% superwash extrafine merino wool, which is perfect for active modern lifestyles. With quick accessories and garments for both men and women, including seven glorious sweaters, I know I will find something for everyone on my knitting list, and more importantly, for myself!

I am excited to start my journey with this book, Wanderlust: 46 Modern Knits for Bohemian Style, and can’t wait to see what beautiful and unique projects I will create. I’m sure this book will be a great addition to my knitting library.

Let me just start by saying—this book is an absolute dream for anyone who gets a little thrill from dusty corners, vintage finds, and the stories old objects tell. Better Homes and Gardens Flea Market Decorating is like walking through the best parts of a weekend market, but with someone stylish and savvy whispering decorating secrets in your ear.

If you’re like me and can’t walk past a chipped enamel jug or a stack of mismatched teacups without imagining them repurposed into something fabulous, then you’re going to feel right at home with this book. It’s filled with page after page of design inspiration, styling tips, and clever ideas for giving new life to old treasures. Think: a weathered bench turned entryway showstopper, or a collection of vintage cameras displayed as functional art.

What I really loved is how the book doesn’t take itself too seriously. It celebrates personality, imperfection, and the charm of the unexpected. You don’t need a designer budget or a house full of pristine antiques—just a good eye, a bit of imagination, and maybe a love of digging through secondhand stalls.

There are also practical tips woven in, like how to spot a quality piece, clean up a flea market find, or figure out how to mix styles without ending up with a room that feels like grandma’s attic (unless, of course, that’s the vibe you’re going for—and no judgment here!).

As someone who regularly repurposes and upcycles, I appreciated how much the book encourages sustainability. It’s a gentle nudge toward mindful decorating—choosing pieces with history and heart, rather than filling your space with fast decor.

Whether you’re a seasoned thrifter or just dipping your toes into the vintage pool, this one is definitely worth flipping through with a cup of tea and a notebook full of ideas. It left me itching to hit my local flea market and find my next project. If your idea of a perfect weekend involves rummaging for forgotten treasures, you’ll absolutely love it.
