Do you wish your knitting was better and that you had an expert knitter by your side to help you when it goes wrong? Then this is the book for you - it even has a special lay-flat binding so you can keep your hands on your needles. Patty Lyons is an expert in all things knitting related - she will help you sort out your gauge, unpick problems like twisted stitches and generally spruce up your knitting know-how in this pocket-sized reference book packed full of her purls of wisdom. Patty is a well-known knitting 'agony aunt' and she will hold your hand as you tackle the problems that often beset knitters and get in the way of beautiful finished projects. This handy guide will always be by your side to help you unravel your yarn problems and get you back on track. Packed full of practical advice for knitters as well as step-by-step instructions for a whole raft of knitting issues, this is the ultimate guide for anyone who's ever picked up yarn and a set of needles. This isn't like other how to knit books with basic information about casting on and how to form stitches (although there is a handy how-to reference section at the back for when you need a refresher), this is a book about the why of knitting. Not about why we knit but about why we knit the way we do. By digging deeper into the why Patty doesn't just fix your knitting problems she helps you to truly understand why the yarn/stitches/needles/tension are acting in a certain way and how to fix any issues. She starts by looking at the basics and explores the anatomy of a stitch, examining how this affects the look, feel and shape of the finished knitted fabrics and how different knitting techniques affect the finished outcome. Patty examines the problems caused by common mistakes that many knitters make without even noticing before diving into more complex knitting issues and how to trouble shoot them. All of Patty's techniques and tips are illustrated with detailed step-by-step artworks for absolute clarity. And, as you'd expect from a Patty Lyons book, there is a healthy scattering of humour and irreverence thoughout; you might take knitting seriously but you don't have to be serious while knitting! Make your knitting journey compete with companion title, Patty Lyons Knitting Bag of Tricks; The Official Workbook , which is now available. Review: A compact goldmine of knitting gems - I bought this book on a whim, on the back of the other reviews - and I have to say that it is probably the best impulse purchase I have ever made. The book compiles the author’s lifetime of knitting and teaching experience in a very portable format. It is absolutely packed with knitting wisdom, richly illustrated with crystal clear images and photos (where you can actually decipher how stitches are constructed), and peppered with hilarious quotes and anecdotes. The fact that this is not a basic knitting manual - information that is repeated in pretty much every standard book on knitting - means that the space can be dedicated to truly valuable nuggets, teaching you how to fix all those annoying little imperfections, and dramatically elevate the quality of your knits. The author’s philosophy is to give the “why” as well as the “how”, arguing that “when we understand, we remember - whereas when we simply memorise, we can forget”. I can’t believe the wealth of information that the author has managed to pack into a relatively small volume. I honestly can’t recommend this book highly enough❣️ Review: Very informative and useful book - Excellent book, very informative and useful. I highly recommend this book. ## Features - New Store Stock ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | 20,457 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) 27 in Knitting (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 1,556 Reviews | ## Images ![Patty Lyons' Knitting Bag Of Tricks: Sanity saving tips for better knitting - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81assXSvtnL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A compact goldmine of knitting gems *by M***S on 4 August 2024* I bought this book on a whim, on the back of the other reviews - and I have to say that it is probably the best impulse purchase I have ever made.
