From the author’s preface:
Instead of a “how” book, I’ve written a “why” book. It’s not a “why do we knit book,” but a “why do we knit the way we do” book. Once we understand the WHY we can figure out the HOW to do it better!
Chapters include topics you expect like gauge and cast-ons and finishing, along with Patty’s signature discourses on Fundamental Truths and Pesky Problems. You’ll laugh, you’ll cry you’ll laugh. You will refer to this resource again and again.
