"In this treasure trove of knowledge gleaned from a lifetime of
knitting, Radcliffe has dispensed with the usual "how-to" reference
book and written a "why-to" guide instead. Brimming with sage
advice, intriguing tips and tricks, and thoughtful considerations
of every aspect of knitting, this book is a must-have for knitters
of all levels who want to understand how to alter, control, and
personalize their work... The book is chockfull of useful
photographs and diagrams, and its clarity, detail, scope, and
companionable tone make it an extraordinary reference and a
delicious read."--Publishers Weekly
This book explains the why behind the how to of knitting. Imagine
if the tiny little bit of information at the beginning of a
knitting pattern was blown up into an almost 300-page reference
book; that begins to explain The Knowledgeable Knitter.--Knitty.com
