### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    ... one but I can honestly say this book is perfect for any novice
  

*by A***A on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 20 July 2018*

I have not bought any other knitting books for beginners except for this one but I can honestly say this book is perfect for any novice. My mother in law showed me how to knit and purl but with the help of this book I can comfortably cast on, knit some simple patterns, cable and cast off few projects with confidence by myself. All the patterns and techniques are clearly explained which helps your confidence before moving onto different slightly more complicated patterns elsewhere. I have never been happier with a book purchase before, get it and don't hesitate!

    Disappointing
  

*by B***N on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 23 April 2019*

I haven't picked up knitting needles for about 25 years, so I shopped around to find an up to date guide to get me started again, and this one had the most five star reviews.Which surprised me - to be honest, I didn't find it all that helpful. It manages to be too basic and yet confusing at the same time. There are far too many full-page photos showing people knitting or wearing knitted garments, pages that would have been better used to show a wider variety of stitches, or to provide tips and techniques in more detail.  A ring-bound format might have been useful, too, so you could prop the book open as you follow instructions.She's obviously going for a friendly, approachable tone but I found it annoyingly patronising in places ("... I'm sure you are a bright, successful human being. But remember that you are now learning something completely new ...")Admittedly, it's hard to take clear photos which show you how to knit, which is why it's probably better, these days, to use the internet: youtube is full of demonstrations which you can pause and rewind as needed. Though I did find the section on how to sew up your garment quite helpful.As a very general introduction to knitting for the complete beginner, this just scrapes three stars, I suppose: though if I was rating it on those bizarre patterns at the end (hardly an incentive to learn - knitted phone cover for a teenage boy, anyone?) I'd want to give it a firm zero.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 







  
  
    Highly recommended for beginners.
  

*by A***A on Reviewed in the United Kingdom on 18 January 2017*

This is a fantastic book that is actually aimed at complete beginners. Even as my skill level has improved, I regularly refer to some of the early lessons (sewing up, for example) as they're so clear. The included project patterns are really good too - I've successfully made the hat, booties and flower so far, an amazing accomplishment for a beginner! Highly recommend to anyone keen to get into knitting.
