“Book Descriptions:One Ball of Yarn is your handbook for 35 knitting and crochet projects to make using just one ball of yarn. Using just one ball of wool, cotton, silk, or variegated yarn, any crafter with a pair of knitting needles or crochet hooks — including beginners young and old — can make any of the huge variety of projects in this book.
In One Ball of Yarn you'll find 35 easy, modern patterns that range from hats, scarves, shawls, headbands, mittens, slippers, and booties to bags and toys. There are useful home accessories, too: coffee cozies, potholders, and pincushions make ideal knitted gifts for crafters to share with family and friends.
All of the projects are straightforward and can be completed in just a few hours. The simple step-by-step instructions make this stress-relieving, creativity-boosting activity accessible for any skill level, and offer all the basics needed to introduce countless variations. Plus, One Ball of Yarn includes a techniques section for both knitting and crochet that instructs beginners on finding the right tools, casting on and off, choosing stitches, and adding finishing touches.” DRIVE
