A beginner's best!!!
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
This knitter's book is clearly written with ample help. All four sweater's I have knit (different patterns) from this book have classic designs with techniquely simple instructions. This should be a "must have" in every knitter's library.
Fun, quick, easy and modern!

All the patterns are great! Chunky knits means fast results!The designs all look fresh and young (nothing too grandma-y)I just love it! I am planning to knit most, if not all, of the projects! (by the way the yarns used in the book are easy to purchase if you live in US)
an excellent choice

I have the attention span of a gnat as far as knitting projects are concerned. Given that, I reckon this book is probably the best how-to book I've bought all year. It's affordable, beautifully put together, extremely fun, full of projects that I've either made or am about to, and an extremely portable size to boot.What's not to like? Buy it. You'll love it, expecially if you're a beginner.
The Three "F"s
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
Fabulous, fun, and fast. This book has it all. I was amazed at the variety of projects - sweaters, one suitable for your favorite guy (or for you!), a wrap, and my personal fave, the cabled cashmere hat.Knitting with bulky yarns is, by definition, fast... but the results are not always fabulous. Unfortunately, many of them scream "THIS WAS EASY TO KNIT!" However, this book is a breath of fresh air. The sleeveless turtlenecks, for example, are sleek and fashionable due to Mari Lynn Patrick's famed shaping techniques and yarn choices. These designs will work up quickly, but look lovely. They will be fun to knit for both beginners and more experienced knitters.Similarly, you'll find some fun stitchwork and colorwork in many of the other projects, including the cashmere hat, and an argyle vest. You're sure to finish these projects in a minimum of time, but everyone will think you slaved over them.I would recommend this book to anyone, especially those who are looking to experiment with some of the new Chunky-weight yarns. As always, this latest edition to the On the Go series is portable, well-designed, with easy to follow charts and instructions.
