A Beginner's Guide to Loom Knitting - by Lucy Hopping (Paperback)

Book Synopsis

Lucy Hopping has put together an incredibly helpful introduction to knitting with a loom, featuring an in-depth, illustrated guide to making each stitch, plus a couple of sewing techniques.

Once you've learned the basics, get started with Colorful Gifts, where you can make a cute pineapple keyring, a twisted headband, and stylish French-knitted necklaces that make perfect gifts. Then, once you feel a bit more confident, move on to Bags & Cases and try making a unique backpack with bright pompoms, an expanding shopper, or a handy tablet case.

There are plenty of exciting things to make and give in the For Kids section, including the sweet finger puppets, a knitted doll, and kitten socks. Finally, in Home Accessories, there are fun ideas that will liven up your décor--have a go at the patchwork pillow, the trendy pouffe, and lampshades.

There is something for everyone in A Beginner's Guide to Loom Knitting, plus many of the projects include ideas for variations so you can even match your decorations to your home and personalize your gifts. You'll be whipping up a variety of loom knits in no time!
