Knitting and Crocheting.
The best books and magazines to learn how to do it.

An art of knitting and crocheting always attracted many people. There are millions of us around the world who consider this art either our hobby or professional business.

Without any doubts you will be able to find numerous sources of information about knitting and crocheting: books, magazines, booklets, CD's, and so on. It is a very exiting experience to "dig" through all this treasures.

But as usually every pleasure has to be paid. In this case it is our precious time, which we never have enough to do everything what we would like to accomplish. What is the solution? Sorry, it is not very easy and simple: we have to be selective and rational while we discovering all new treasures about our favorite knitting or crocheting.

Here are my principles of "elimination" which I used to present you these pages about good knitting/crocheting books and magazines. Sure, they were my personal choices and can't be called "the-best-in the-world-for-everyone". But there are some rational ideas in choosing them. Let's look what kinds of "filters" they went through before being presented here.

There were a few requirements to consider the book "a must have or read". It has positively to answer the questions:

• Does it tell me HOW TO DO it? (First and the most import ante!)
• Is presentation clear enough to understand the process easy?
• Does it have good quality pictures? (The majority of us are visual learners).
• Does it have A LOT of useful information to keep it as a reference book on the table instead of putting it on the shelf to collect dust?

Here they are, the "filtered" books and magazines. Those which will be your good helpers, source of new ideas, inspiration and a lot of pleasure. It is only the very beginning of the list of my favorite knitting and crocheting books. You will find more and more of them added while I build this site. Fortunately there are a lot of talented people who share their knowledge and passion with us.

All books and magazines are grouped on three pages to make your choice easy. Enjoy!
