Learn to Knit in Just One Day
by Jean Leinhauser
The book is laid out in step by step sections. Very much for a beginner. Not like the
pattern books I see where they attempt to instruct you in one paragraph how to
do a knit stitch. This book to my
recollection had at least 3 pages on the knit stitch. It would describe a technique, show some line
drawing pictures, and then instruct and encourage you to do the thing it was
describing.
It was published in 1993, so the style is outdated to say
the least. Most of the items wouldn't look that bad if made in more “fashionable” colors. So keep an open and creative mind.
My favorite part of this book was that it told you when to
take a break. Almost like it was saying;
“You learned that thing, good job, now go have lunch or something and come back
later.” I did have lunch or something
and I did come back later, this really helped.
This book really did let me learn to knit in just one day.
