Patty Lyons' Knitting Bag of Tricks

Over 70 Sanity Saving Hacks for Better Knitting

Patty Lyons

Description

Do you wish your knitting was better and that you had an expert knitter by your side to help you when it goes wrong? Then this is the book for you.

This handy guide goes far beyond your typical knitting tips. Knitters of all levels will discover both why and how various techniques work and improve both the look of their knitting and their command of stitches. It's sure to take any knitter's skills up to the next level.

Patty Lyons starts by looking at the basics and explores the anatomy of a stitch, examining how this affects the look, feel and shape of the finished knitted fabrics and how different knitting techniques affect the finished outcome. She examines the problems caused by common mistakes that many knitters make without even noticing before diving into more complex knitting issues and how to trouble shoot them. All of Patty's techniques and tips are illustrated with detailed step-by-step artworks for absolute clarity.

And, as you'd expect from a Patty Lyons book, there is a healthy scattering of humour and irreverence throughout – you might take knitting seriously but you don't have to be serious while knitting!
