  • A Great Instructional Knitting Book

    I have been knitting since I was a child. I was competent to knit simple items. Now that I have more time, I have joined a knitting group. I wanted to upgrade my skills and learn to knit more complicated patterns. This book is wonderful! The explantations and the pictures make learning new stitches and techniques easy. I originally took this book out of the library but soon ordered my own copy. It is a great book for beginner and more experienced knitters.
