Quick Knits with Today’s Yarns

Quick Knits with Today’s Yarns

by Jayne S. Davis

Whether you’re a first-time knitter or someone who’s been knitting for years, you will have nothing but fun working with the wide array of yarns available today. From exquisite eyelash to chunky chenille, there seems no end to the choices in yarn weights and colors.

This book showcases 50 fun and stylish projects made with these wonderful yarns using just the knit and purl stitches. These two simple stitches are used in endless combinations to make a myriad of easy-to-do designs. Wraps, a jacket, hats, socks, purses, even knitted jewelry plus more are included.

For the novice and those of us who could use a brush-up course, a complete primer on basic equipment and basic knitting and finishing techniques are included along with helpful hints taking the mystery out of printed knitting directions. Instructions for adding embellishments of beads, buttons, charms, fringes, pompoms…even making a silk ribbon flower are included.

Knitting beautiful, useful objects for knitters of all levels is what this book is all about.

Included in the book:

  • 50 quick-to-knit projects for every season or occasion
  • Complete guide to the basics, including stitches, necessary tools and finishing tips
  • 185 gorgeous color photographs and 45 how-to illustrations for step-by-step success
  • Instructions for embellishing with beads, buttons, charms, fringes, pompoms and handmade trims
