Perfect Guide to Casting on & Binding Off: How to Begin and End Your Knitting with Confidence (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781639811366)

Knitting is one of America's favorite pastimes--but it never hurts to know how to start and finish! In the Ultimate Guide to Casting On and Binding Off, author Jen Lucas offers a comprehensive instruction manual for beginners who need to learn the art of casting on and binding off before they master their craft. Though it includes a wide selection of easy-to-follow, step-by-step methods with high-quality supporting details, it's a highly portable reference that can fit in your knitting bag for easy transport. It's not only for beginners, though. Lucas's tips, tricks, and advice all come from her decades of experience in the craft--including working as a pattern designer. But even if you're beginning from scratch, this book offers a handy overview of tools and materials you need to "cast on" your metaphorical stitch and fully embrace this wonderfully relaxing hobby.
