Revainrating 5 out of 5

A great resource for intermediate and advanced knitters; Beginners need help

As the title suggests, this book contains 250 knitting patterns; Once beginners understand the basics of knitting, they can easily perform some of these patterns (basic garter stitch, stockinette stitch, basic ribbing), but other patterns include advanced cables, lace, and colored knits. Color photos show the resulting pattern, and instructions are provided in both verbatim and tables. Additionally, the instructions for each pattern recommend weights and yarn types for that particular pattern, as standard worsted (#4 weight) is not always appropriate for some patterns. ) selection and care of needle and thread, Stitch technique, interpretation of instructions both verbatim and diagrams and much more. This book, like others of its kind, is aimed at intermediate and advanced knitters who wish to expand their repertoire; Absolute beginners will need the help of a more experienced knitter. I see this book as a great resource for sampler style throws or other things of my own design.

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • flimsy
