This easy learning book is directed exclusively at first-time knitters, inspiring confidence, and instructing beginners on basic techniques for casting stitches. From there, they progress to make useful and attractive items, including scarves, socks, tote bags, ponchos, and other good-looking things. The author gives directions for ten finished projects in all. In addition, she includes instructions for making and attaching pom-poms, tassels, covered buttons, knitted roses, and several other embellishments. Knitting novices will also discover clever ways to decorate knitted pieces with colored felt and ribbon attachments. All knitting projects are presented with detailed lists of required materials, including yarns and needles in correct sizes for the projects to be completed. With Wendy Freeman's cheerfully presented instructions and large, bright color photos on every page, here is the perfect book for beginning knitters.

[back cover]
This is a wonderful mix-and-match book for first-time knitters, packed full of fashionable ideas. The first 10 projects are easy-to-knit accessories: legwarmers, bags, scarves, belts, hats, and a poncho. The next ten are easy-to-stitch embellishments—from eye-catching striped balls and pom-poms to crochet flowers, fringes, and covered buttons.
Clear directions and step-by-step photographs avoid the language problems that put off so many first-time knitters. From basic tools and equipment to finishing your projects neatly, you’ll find inspiration, encouragement, and an adventurous approach to knitwear design.
Once you’ve knitted your project, it’s up to you to embellish the design with any number of combinations, from ponchos with crochet flowers to a bag decorated with pom-poms and cables, or a loopy scarf complete with felt flowers and striped balls.
Author Wendy Freeman shares her quirky and unusual knitted designs and accessories, always suggesting the brightest colors and styles.
