Spin to Knit: The Knitter's Guide to Making Yarn (ISBN 1596680075)

Categories:


Disappointing:
I am both a crocheter and knitter and have recently started spinning. I was rather disappointed by the fact that although the name would lead you to believe the book has a great deal of spinning instruction, the reality is that it is mostly knitting patterns worked with homespun which was produced by many different people and little to no instruction as to how to produce similar yarn yourself.


fiber crafts:
As a new spinner, but long-time knitter, I'm glad I bought this book. It took me from one process to the other with valuable information. I have a better understanding of how I can use my hand-spun yarn.


disappointing:
I've just started spinning with a drop spindle, with information I found on various websites. I got this book hoping it would add to that knowledge. I haven't found anything here that I haven't found for free, in more detail, elsewhere. I would hope that the art would be higher quality, but there were several of the knit projects that only had one photo, from one angle, with no diagrams or further explanations on how to put them together. I had much higher expectations.


Nice spinning book for your collection:
I enjoyed this book. It gives a nice review of spinning with simple patterns for a beginnning spinner. A good quick reference book for spinners.


It's a good book:
Spin to Knit: The Knitter's Guide to Making Yarn I have enjoyed this book. I am house bound so I needed something in writing and pictures that would help me with my spinning and this book filled the bill! I enjoy reading from it, then trying out the instructions. I would recommend this book to most.
