WHEN BAD THINGS HAPPEN TO GOOD KNITTERS

Paperback
Nonfiction/Crafts

 

What happens when your knitting pattern appears to be written in Arabic?  Or you have dropped a stitch halfway thru that sweater?  Call on the knitting nanas, Marion Edmonds and Ahza Moore.  They have all the tools to keep beginning and experienced knitters from having high blood pressure and to turn out beautiful projects time after time.

When this reviewer was given WHEN BAD THINGS HAPPEN TO GOOD KNITTERS, I was just in the process of teaching myself how to knit.  I have to credit Ms. Edmonds and Ms. Moore the fact that I am still learning this productive hobby.  Otherwise this reviewer would have thrown in the needles the first time a dropped stitch was discovered a few rows later.  They cover subjects in such a way that beginning and experience knitters alike will benefit from their expertise on knitting delivered in a no nonsense fashion and from their humor for the times when you aren’t sure whether to laugh or cry.  They cover subjects from how to hold the needles and yarn properly, to how to increase properly; to how to pick up that dropped stitch to how to fix a neck hole that is too small for your head and all subjects in between.

So if you are just learning to knit or just looking for ways to combat the minor emergencies be sure to pick WHEN BAD THINGS HAPPEN TO GOOD KNITTERS by Marion Edmonds and Ahza Moore today.  This little gem deserves to be in every knitter’s craft library.
