Vogue Knitting: The Ultimate Quick Reference

Excellent quick how to book

I won this book today in a magazine giveaway (thank you Knitting magazine - GMC Distribution). It really does teach you just about all you need to know about knitting. Even if you think you know it all, there is always something to learn and this book covers just about everything from beginner to experienced. I’m particularly interested in the explanation of knitting from a chart as this book explains all the symbols. I would strongly recommend this book.

I find I’m referring to this guide quite a lot and it has really helped me out of difficult spots! Great!

Muito bom, mesmo em inglês!!

Muito interessante

Remains open well for easy reading.

I bought this book because I started knitting a beautiful blue wool sweater about 20 years ago. I lost the pattern before I completed the neckline. I'm an amateur knitter; but I can follow a pattern and I just needed clear directions for completing this neckline and (finally) completing the sweater - which by the way is now too small for me but will make a great gift. This book is really comprehensive and that was exactly what I needed. A big plus is the Quick Reference Guide that comes with this book. My one complaint about the main book is it's weight. But it is a hardback book and is so full of knitting information that it must be heavy so I'm not reducing my 5 star rating for this book because of it's weight. I'm sorry I didn't buy this book before investing in a bunch of other knitting books. The Vogue Ultimate Knitting Book has what the others have and more. Buy this book if you want a knitting reference that this amateur knitter evaluates as useful for beginners to experienced knitters. I'm attaching a picture of the Table of Contents to help substantiate my opinions.

My wife is very happy with this book. It has everything you need to create some great knitting. The actual size of the book is less cumbersome than the original one too.
