Knitting continues to be a very popular craft, and this book has a very wide appeal both to beginners and more accomplished knitters.

The book covers a wide variety of themes from Christmas knits, baby bootees, phone covers, mug hugs, headbands and scarves, so there is something for everyone to enjoy. Knitting requires very little in the way of tools and materials, which are widely available from major yarn stores and are relatively inexpensive.

Review:

Search Press are on top form with this book. You'll find the book jam packed with gifts you can make for any occasion. If you just want something quick to whip up then this book is ideal. It brings together the 20 to make series and has the best designs and projects for you to make. There is everything to make,from beanies, flowers, scarves, boot cuffs, phone sox, tea cosies, teddy bears and sooo much more! The patterns are in written terms and most people will be able to find numerous projects that they are able to make. I cannot describe the amount of brilliant things you can knit from this book. Whether it's a child's birthday or just a little Christmas gift you are bound to find something. When they give you the details of the materials they give the generic details so you can chose the yarn you want to use with the project. I have so many favorites in this book. The one most pulling at my "I want to make" strings is the tea cosies. The owl one is brilliant. You really will find a brilliant little gift for any occasion in this book. I might even be making a few for myself ;-) * Crochet Addict UK *
