Beginner's Guide To Knitting On A Loom

The best beginner book so far for newcomers to loom knitting. All explanations are easy to understand with good diagrams.

Great book….very easy to follow.

Clear and easy to understand

This book is a comprehensive introduction to loom knitting which is appropriate for the new loom knitter. Directions, illustrations and patterns are included in this guide and are easy to understand.

It's a very nice book for kids to learn how to knit

This is a great reference for beginning loom knitters of all types. Round and board looms are introduced and the items introduced there can easily be transferred to sock and Afghan looms. Various cast-ons, stiches and cast-offs are covered with a number of patterns. A glossary is also there with many photos and diagrams. Experienced knitters might also find it useful to revisit/brush up on things. A very useful purchase.

Hard to understand and follow

good illustrated directions. I gave it to my grandson for Christmas along with beads and wire. I think my daughter was more excited than he was. I’m sure they’ll both have fun.

Sehr schönes Buch, verständliche Beschreibungen, gut illustriert

Great ideas and projects to do and practice knit stitches

Loom knitting is a great halfway skill for those learning to knot, or for those without the dexterity or hand strength to hold two kneedles for long times. The finished effect is a knitted fabric and can be done as a flat piece, though is usually done "in the round" The book shows how to make so much more than just hats or arm warmers, and how to embellish them with patterns and textures too. The instructions are good and clear with lots of helpful photos. My neices had a couple of hours with me to learn the basic skill, and then went off with the book - I havent had a single confused text or phone call since, despite them loving this and using it a lot. They are 7 and 12, with unskilled parents, so a great result.... Wonder if I will get it back, or give in and let them keep it!! :)

Gostei bastante do livro. Muitas receitas e bem explicadas. Foi útil.

Un livre en anglais, certes, mais les schémas sont très bien et les livres en français sur le tricotin ne courent pas les rues, donc on ne boude pas son plaisir.
