So, he found this and I have to say, I am so happy. It has every type of stitch you can imagine, with fantastic instructions, that even someone like me can understand. Ahem.
I thought I would make him a little something. This is a twisted rib scarf. I love it because it can almost pass as a cable stitch. I plan on practicing some different techniques, while making scarves, then incorporating some of these fancy stitches in other patterns. I really recommend this book for new, or experienced knitters. There are over 400 different stitches!

and i love the scarf.............i am sure he will let you borrow it! :)
I bought that book for my mom for christmas. She loves to knit baby blankets & scarves, she was also pretty excited about the new patterns to use! Can't wait to see your new designs and hers too!
I forgot to tell you I picked up the book at Border's and started using it right away. The salesclerk has it too and says it's one of the best knitting books around!
MOM
that sounds like my kind of knitting book! :) what a sweet husband.
I don't knit but I crochet. I actually started with knit but it didn't stick with me. I am thinking about trying again. Your scarf is lovely!
