Book Reviews of The Knitting Answer Book: Solutions to Every Problem You'll Ever Face; Answers to Every Question You'll Ever Ask

Book Review: Good basic information well presented
Summary: 4 Stars

If you're just starting out knitting or even if you've been at it for awhile, this is a great little book to have about how to get out of a mess, and secondarily, how to avoid one. I don't usually read instructions before delving in, so this is a great book for those of us who just jump in. The information is easy to use, thoughtful and well presented.

Summary of The Knitting Answer Book: Solutions to Every Problem You'll Ever Face; Answers to Every Question You'll Ever Ask

Every avid knitter has faced this dilemma: deep into a project at midnight, just trying to finish one more row, and, then . . . oh no, a dropped stitch three rows back! Help! If only there was a 24-hour hotline to answer every question a knitter might encounter. Well, now there is, with The Knitting Answer Book . The expert authors, Margaret Radcliffe and Edie Eckman, leave no question unanswered, no quandry unaddressed. Each book contains detailed, illustrated answers to literally hundreds of questions, from the common to the more unusual:

. Are certain needles better for certain yarns?
. What if I dropped a stitch several rows back?
. Why do my edges tend to curl up?
. Can you use a different weight yarn than the pattern calls for?
. What can I do to keep my yarns from tangling up?
. Oops, I see my ribbing is way too tight. Now what?

Covering the whole range of situations a beginner is likely to face, along with the problems that may arise for those working more advanced patterns, this Answer Book will help knitters and crocheters of all levels. Each book is packaged in a small, take-along trim size, in a friendly-to-use Q&A format, and belongs in the bag of every knitter. Available 24/7, The Knitting Answer Book is always open, ready for yarn lovers to browse and consult to their heart's content.
