If you're looking to creatively embrace spring, this book of knitting patterns is perfect for you. Sheryl Thies' Knitting by Nature offers nineteen, nature-inspired tutorials for scarves, wraps, shawls and shrugs. As you'll see from the beautiful pictures provided in this book, these designs pull from earthy, outdoor elements to achieve a natural look.
What I love about this book is its organization. I'm not just talking about how the projects are split up in the book, though that in itself is highly appealing. The layout for every knitting project is very accessible for even a novice knitter. Every major portion of a project, whether it's the body of the knitted garment or the finishing, has its own instructional section. What's more is that every row is accounted for as well, with specifications about the number and types of stitches. There are even diagrams to aid the written instructions.
The projects featured in this book anticipate any questions you might have prior to beginning. Before describing the pattern, you'll find a list of materials that you'll need, from markers to yarn types. Also handy in these tutorials is the gauge size included for each project. Details on every needle that you'll use along the way are provided as well. If you're looking for understandable knitting patterns, this book is for you.
