First Time Knits

Knitter extraordinaire Louise Walker’s mantra is ‘If you can knit, purl, increase and decrease, then you can make anything.’ In this book, she teaches you all the basic techniques you need to know to make the most exciting and achievable knits.

Assuming that you’ve never held a needle before, the book introduces you to the basics and teaches you techniques as and when you need them, without overloading you with information. Most of the projects use chunky and super chunky yarn, which means that the wool is easy to handle, you can see your stitches more easily and your project will grow quickly!

First Time Knits has links to accessible online video tutorials, featuring Louise's knitters who work on the same project as you. They tell you their knitting stories and show you their finished product to help you identify commonly-made mistakes, why they're made and how to fix them.

Perfect for beginners, First Time Knits will have you knitting something beautiful in no time!
