No matter where you go, this portable guide, filled with detailed instructions, easy-to-follow patterns, and beautifully-styled color photographs, puts a project at your fingertips. A basics section covers the different yarns, including the new, fun novelty yarns with exciting embellishments. Knit a fast fluffy hat out of mohair or one for a new baby, a lovely lacy ribbed scarf, a pretty basket-weave towel, an elegant beaded bag, and a variety of sweaters and socks.

Handy To Have
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
If you're a knitter that's on the "go" a lot, this is a convenient, pocket-sized book to have with you. It has a lot of nice, smaller projects to make, that would be very portable without taking up a lot of space or dragging a lot of extra paraphenalia around with you. I would have liked to see a little more variety for the projects, however.
Nice basic book

This is a handy book for any knitter to throw in your bag to go to knitting groups or travel. It has a nice range of patterns, complete instructions, and photos to show what your project could look like. Good for any knitter's collection.

I'm a new self taught knitter and I "love" this little book. The baby hat is the first thing I knitted and the first real success that I could give as a gift. I've done the 2 fast fluffy hats with the bulky yarn I had on hand and they are great! I'm working on the chevron hat now and I can't believe how beautiful the pattern looks. Yes, I'm very new at this stuff and the dpn's are a bit clumsy for me but at last I'm having success. It seems that Leanne Bennett and I are on the same page. I wish she would do another book. CV
