Would you like to surprise someone you love with a gift made with your own hands, and see the joy on their face? Are you looking for a hobby that allows your mind to relax and free itself from the thoughts that make you anxious? If yes, keep reading.. I want to confess something to you. Many years ago I started learning the basics of Knitting. I practiced for days and days and couldn't wait to complete my first project. However, I continued to make many mistakes. Have you ever tried and tried to do something and always get bad results? Well, this was exactly my situation and I can't hide that it was very frustrating. Despite everything I never gave up, and today things have changed radically! My name is Nancy Harris and for over ten years I have been organizing workshops around the world to share my knowledge with people. It is very important that you pay attention to what I am going to tell you. I absolutely don't want the difficulties you will find to frustrate you! Precisely for this reason I have created this book where I will teach you the right techniques that will allow you to realize your first project in the easiest, fastest and fun way possible! Do you want to know what I love the most about Knitting? I love turning an idea that I have in my mind into something tangible and functional. You can even give your creations to the people you love for special occasions and enjoy the smiles on their faces when they see that it is something you made with your own hands. Your creation will be a truly original gift, unique and inimitable! But that's not all! Knitting also has a therapeutic effect. Let me explain better, have you ever felt overwhelmed by your daily problems? You could practice yoga, but Knitting gives you the same benefits while being productive. Scientific studies have found that Macramé has the power to eliminate anxiety and stress. In fact, the repetitive movement of your hands allows your mind to relax and stop focusing on issues that are making you anxious. Because you are focused on creating your project, you will be able to completely distract your mind. So, are you curious to know what you will learn?

If you are new to knitting, don't read this
an experienced knitter, i was going to buy it for a friend, but very soon decided not to. A very badly written book. I think it started off in a another language and has Google translation to English. It refers to stitches as circles, upsurge instead of increase to name a couple of anomalies. My pet hate of misspelling purl as pearl is all the way through. I was fortunate enough to have this on kindle unlimited so did not waste any money. So not impressed.

October 29, 2020Nice beginner’s guide with illustrations
I learned to crochet when I was a young child. I’ve always wanted to knit. Some say it’s hard to learn one of these crafts if you already know it’s counterpart. This was an easy to understand, illustrated, quick read that provides the basic techniques and a few patterns to try!
