I am a new knitter but not to yarn. I have been crocheting for years but thought I would give knitting a try. This book explains so many terms and situations I was never aware of in knitting. The accompanying photos are perfect to follow the step-by-step instruction. The pictures of the finished variations are amazing. I highly recommend this book to anyone interested in knitting.
