The Knitting Encyclopedia

The Knitting Encyclopedia is a comprehensive guide for all knitters. It's the ultimate guide for all levels of knitting with clear full-color photographs and step-by-step instructional diagrams throughout and a stitch dictionary. The 30 patterns included in this book are divided by simple projects for beginners like garter stitch scarf, a beret and a chevron blanket, as well as for the intermediate knitter which includes double-breasted cardigan ankle socks, and Fair Isle mittens. There are also advanced projects including Fair Isle yoke sweater, lace panel gloves and a cabled afghan. The spiral binding makes it lay open flat for easy reference. A great reference book that's filled with projects makes this book great to giveaway to that new knitter as well as keep for yourself.
