How to Knit is Debbie Bliss' perfect introduction to this versatile craft, from casting on the first stitch to creating an intricate Fair Isle cardigan. Presented as nine workshops, each lesson builds on the skills already learned to ensure steady, confident progress. As well as teaching new techniques and stitches, each lesson finishes with projects specially designed to put new skills into practice.
The first lesson looks at materials and equipment and the most basic stitches and techniques. At the end of the first course, you will be able to knit a child's garter-stitch jacket and an adult's stocking-stitch tunic. Subsequent lessons cover simple stitch patterns, Aran knitting, Intarsia and Fair Isle, lace knitting, entrelac, and finishing techniques.
Packed with hundreds of colour photos and illustrations, this is an ideal how-to for beginners and a valuable reference for more experienced knitters.
