Summary: Useful info for hand knitters...but
Comment: I was a little disappointed in the fact that I typed in the words "Machine Knit" in the search and this is the first book that came up. After receiving the book, most of the information is for hand knitters..the machine knitting information is very limited.

Summary: Some helpful tips among many irrelevant ones
Comment: I learned some good tips from this book, but find I wish I had spent my money elsewhere. I look forward to matching the slants of my increases to the slants of my decreases, but do I really need to know 5 different ways to wind a ball of yarn? Or all and sundry's ideas for handy yarn containers (from diaper-wipe canisters to plastic baggies)? This is mostly a compendium of readers' helpful hints, and has no center of gravity to it. I probably won't use 90 percent of it.

Summary: A Wealth of Knitting Tidbits!
Comment: I really like this little gem. I first sat down and read it straight through and have found myself referring to it often. Lots of tried and true hints and little shortcuts for all levels of knitters.
I don't belong to a knitting circle, but I would assume having this little book loaded with "secrets" is a bit like being in one; hearing all sorts of bits and pieces of what works!
