From best-selling author and crafting queen Claire Gelder, this gorgeous mini guide is packed full of knitting knowledge, practical illustrations, and four simple projects.
Perfect for complete beginners, Claire clearly explains everything you need to know about knitting: how to read a ball band, how to get the tension correct, how to choose needles and yarns, how to cast on and how to read abbreviations and knitting patterns. It is structured as a simple three-step course that will help you progress from bronze to gold as your skills and confidence grow. Start with the basic stitches and simple joining, build up a few more stitches for your collection, then add some simple shaping and pompoms. Before you know it, you'll knit a garter stitch scarf, herringbone stitch blanket, a loop stitch cushion and a pompom hat.
