Large color illustrations and easy-to-follow directions demonstrate author Betty Junor's declaration that knitting is both fun and easy. Starting with very basic instructions and recommending the use of brilliantly colored yarns--just for funky fun--she shows how beginners can create knits that are gratifying to make and fun to own. Beginners to the art of knitting will discover all they need to know about:
 
	
Knitting Basics: needles, yarns, and related materials
	
Getting Started: from making a slipknot to casting off and finishing
	
Easy Projects: headbands, belts, hats, and more
	
Projects on different needles: a drawstring bag, purse with strap, and more
Fun Stuff: pompoms, knitted flowers, and more

The book's easy to follow illustrated directions and extra-colorful photos will inspire neophyte knitters to create all the knitted things they've ever dreamed of making. It's a great starter book for both juvenile and adult learners.
