The Portable Crafter: Knitting

Knitters love their craft so much and find it so relaxing that they just can’t seem to put down their needles. Now they don’t have to, because these 26 hats, purses, pillows, wraps, and mittens are made expressly for taking along. No matter where you go, this portable guide, filled with detailed instructions, easy-to-follow patterns, and beautifully-styled color photographs, puts a project at your fingertips. A basics section covers the different yarns, including the new, fun novelty yarns with exciting embellishments. Knit a fast fluffy hat out of mohair or one for a new baby, a lovely lacy ribbed scarf, a pretty basket-weave towel, an elegant beaded bag, and a variety of sweaters and socks.
