The Kids' Knitting Notebook

Book excerpt: It’s a knitting manual and a journal all in one--designed especially for kids! Using an array of patterns they’ll love and instructions they’ll understand, this notebook introduces the wonderful craft of knitting, and also gives plenty of space to attach swatches, pictures, and notes. It even includes check-off boxes so readers can mark what they’ve completed. What a fun way for them to scrapbook and track their progress! Beginning with the basics--yarn, needles, and other gadgets--the guide moves on to a sequence of fabulous projects that build logically on one another. There are tank tops, customized flip flops, headbands, legwarmers, and cashmere cuffs, plus accessories, including an MP3 player holster. Clear, colorful shots of finished projects and how-to illustrations make learning easy.
