Also, Shannon Okey&#39;s Knitgrrl books are good and have more advanced techniques - even if some of the projects are a little silly.&nbsp;</p> <p>The Knitter&#39;s Companion by Vicki Square is also useful, but don&#39;t trust the needle guage in the back (the holes are smaller than the one on my metal guage, which I trust more).&nbsp;</p> <p>Good luck and happy knitting!&nbsp;</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>http://www.knittingdaily.com/forums/thread/81550.aspxFri, 16 Dec 2011 20:34:30 GMT44ce05d4-61e0-4251-b9ba-686eafad3c9f:81550Zoe0http://www.knittingdaily.com/forums/thread/81550.aspxhttp://www.knittingdaily.com/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=70&PostID=81550<p>&quot;Knitting for Dummies&quot; is very valuable to learn the basics of knitting and take you a little further into the knitting world.</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>http://www.knittingdaily.com/forums/thread/81548.aspxFri, 16 Dec 2011 18:43:49 GMT44ce05d4-61e0-4251-b9ba-686eafad3c9f:81548mdmallorymd0http://www.knittingdaily.com/forums/thread/81548.aspxhttp://www.knittingdaily.com/forums/commentrss.aspx?SectionID=70&PostID=81548<p>hello! &nbsp; i am new to knitting. &nbsp;i am looking for recommendations for &quot;learn to knit&quot; books. &nbsp;any suggestions?</p><div style="clear:both;"></div>
