The author says:
"I’ve spent almost a year writing what I believe is the most usable beginning knitting primer in the world. Why? Because I couldn’t find knitting lessons that were free of jargon. I couldn’t find a tutorial that broke every task into perfect detail and made me practice every step before I moved on. Because I couldn’t find a book that was easy to use and recapped things so I could find them quickly.
"I want your experience to be better than mine was from the first day you pick up your first set of knitting needles, those strange little pointy sticks. I don’t want you to be one of the sad and frustrated people that try with confusing or unclear instructions and wind up throwing the whole wad of needles, tangled yarn and, dare I say it, painfully awful knitting into a bag and giving it to a thrift store, like I almost did. There is no reason for it… now."
"Although pictures are not included, they aren't really necessary, because the text instructions are clear and accurate. The directions for the m1 increase are without doubt the best I have ever come across." -- Deborah Mason, knitter and retired teacher
The book is also available in large type PDF format for use in the Adobe Acrobat reader.
