If you like to knit, or even if you haven’t done so before and have always wanted to, you should really download this book and give it a try. If you haven’t knitted before, check the net and you will find all sorts of sites on YouTube.com to learn how to knit. Or, even better, check out your local yarn shop. It is a wonderful way to support your local economy and get to know some really nice people! In most locals you can go in and get your yarn, then sit down and have all sorts of nice ladies wander by to help you out. They usually offer classes for newbies too, which can give you the opportunity to meet new people to share your interests with.

Overall? I look at knitting, or any craft books, and ask myself certain questions. Is the book well written? Are the instructions clear and easy to follow? Are any charts well defined and easy to follow? Is the key easy to read? Are there easy instructions for anything that may be new to the knitter? (YF, cables, etc.) Are the photos well done and beautiful?

Grab this book quickly, before it goes off “Free” and then make sure all your friends know about it!
