Book Reviews of The Knitter's Companion (The Companion Series)
Book Review: Lots of info for a little book
Summary: 5 Stars
This book is definitely in my shopping cart after using the library's copy. Why get it when you have the Vogue Knitting ref you may ask? I was starting to do paired decreases and increases in a sweater with shaping and it was just so much easier to flip the spiral bound pages in this 5"x7" compact book than having Vogue Knitting laying on my lap. Also, the instructions in this book are concise and clear accompanied by well-drawn illustrations. Besides increases and decreases, this book covers other topics that usually have me running to a full size knitting reference, e.g., kitchener, short-rowing, various seaming methods. It may not have an exhaustive explanation for each technique but it is enough to jog one's memory. Another plus: even though the pages are small, the type is large and dark enough to pose no strain for a middle aged person.
Summary of The Knitter's Companion (The Companion Series)
Providing an overview of gauges, joins, seams, borders, and buttonholes, this portable reference is the definitive tool for hand-knitters and an indispensable addition to any knitter?s bag of tricks.
