Learn To Knit - The Basics
The first in a new series, Rowan’s ‘Learn to Knit: The Basics’ takes the beginner through essential knitting skills such as casting on, casting off, and the basic knit and purl stitch. Building on these instructions, they can move onto combinations of stitches and begin to incorporate the next level of skills. Expert tips and advice appear throughout. A series of 12 simple patterns enables consolidation of the skills learned throughout the book, each encouraging, inspiring and developing confidence.
Clear, easy to follow, step-by-step illustrations provide a reference for the new knitter to have at their fingertips, and the book is sized to be easily carried in a knitting bag.
