This work shows how to read less, learn more and knit or crochet heirlooms for friends and family. If you ever wondered how your grandmother created all those colorful hats, scarves, and sweaters well, here's how she did it. "Teach Yourself Visually Knitting and Crocheting" is a complete visual tutorial on both knitting and crocheting, two crafts that have recently exploded in popularity, with 4 million new knitters last year and a 400 percent increase in the number of knitters and crocheters under 35 since 1998. The book includes complete coverage of basic as well as more advanced techniques from circular knitting and incorporating lace to making honeycomb cables and Fair Isle knitting along with an impressive selection of knitting and crocheting patterns. With lots of handy shortcuts, advice on fixing common errors, and tips on fabric, this full-color guide is a must for any visual learner who wants to have some fun with needles or a hook.
