Kids Knitting
By Melanie Falick
|
Knitting may not be the first free-time activity kids think of, but this very attractive book
is just the thing to get them interested. Special care has been taken with the book's design —
everything from the typeface to the layout, to the bright background colors and occasional original artwork,
makes the book look hip and fresh. Dynamic color photos show both boys and girls knitting away at
appealing projects; among them: backpacks, hats, puppets, scarfs, and a sweater. The instructions
for knitting basics, such as casting on and the garter stitch, are given both in writing and visually,
and are so clear that adult books on knitting could pick up some pointers. Not your grandmother's knitting book.
