About this ebook
Learn with photos, projects, and videos! “Each chapter is devoted to a different skill, starting with the basics and moving on to more advanced techniques.” —Library Journal
Written with the absolute beginner in mind, Knitting 101 teaches all the basics for learning to knit with step-by-step instructions and photographs. Knitting skills are learned by working on projects, beginning with something very easy and getting progressively more difficult as you work through the book. New skills are explored in depth as they are introduced. The introductory section covers all the basics of knitting—selecting yarn, needle types and sizes, other tools and accessories, knitting gauge, casting on, forming stitches, reading patterns—making this the most comprehensive beginner’s book available.
The accompanying online videos include a how-to guide illustrating all the knitting techniques presented in the book—providing a valuable supplement to the text and numerous photos.
