Guide Review - Knitting Book
Knitting has been growing in popularity over the past couple of years, especially with kids. Have you seen those fancy knit scarves using specialty furs, such as Fun Fur and Eyelash yarn? If you learn how to knit, you can make these for yourself and for gifts, plus lots of other projects. With the step-by-step directions in this book, and great illustrations, everyone can master the basics such as casting on, knit and purl, increasing and desreasing stitches, and casting off. Besides the basics, there are several projects offered - you can make scarves, mittens, hats, bags, and more.
