First Time Knits

Fun Projects to Take You from Beginner to Knitter

Sincerely Louise Walker

Description

This book teaches the aspiring crafter everything you would need to know about knitting in step-by-step projects. It is perfect for crafters who want to make something beautiful quickly, but are intimidated by most knitting patterns.

Assuming that you've never held a needle before, the book introduces you the basics and teaches you new techniques as and when you need them, without overloading you with information. Projects include: Animal phone cosy, bear cup warmer, tiger scarf, whale bottle carrier, turtle coaster, faux taxidermy, bobble hat, hot dog toy, rainbow raglan jumper. And the best thing is that most of the projects use chunky and super chunky yarn, which means that the wool is easy to handle, you can see your stitches more easily and your project will grow quickly!

First Time Knits also has links to accessible online video tutorials. As you go through the book, there are also Louise's knitters who work on the same project as you. They tell you their knitting stories and compare their finished knits with you, helping you identify the common mistakes made, why they've made them and how to fix them.
