Knitwit: 20 Fun Projects for Beginners and Seasoned Knitters

by Katie Boyette

This book is a delight. Katie Boyette's designs are playful, inventive, and a whole lot of fun for both children and adults. The 20 projects are organized from beginning to end with the easiest upfront and moving to those that are more of a challenge in the later pages. Icons are shown that clearly indicate the level of each project. Katie has included a glossary on each project page so there's no annoying back-and-forth looking for abbreviation meanings. KnitWit contains more than 150 full-color photographs, showing along-the-way photos, important steps such as attaching arms and legs, and final photos of the completed piece.

Really cute stuff and the instructions are pretty good as are the illustrations. Our anime con kids will love these. Just hope I can get 'em done!

Love these designs! I dip in & out & love these for quick birthday gifts. This book might be a little overwhelming for the actual beginning knitter.

Fun book. Author told how the designs came about. Fun things to make. A little off beat, but fun.

Great photographs, tutorials, and clever captions. I'm not currently interested in knitting stuffed toys, but this book almost makes me want to start!

Fun ideas. I may get this from the library again when I'm done with my current project.

Nope, nothing I want to knit. Liked better: Amigurumi Knits: Patterns for 20 Cute Mini Knits by Singh, Knitted Wild Animals by Keen, Farmyard Knits by Goble,

Cute, fun patterns for kids toys along the line of Monsters Inc.
