Stitch 'N Bitch: The Knitter's Handbook
In Stitch 'n Bitch, Debbie Stoller-founder of the first Stitch 'n Bitch knitting group in New York City-covers every aspect of knitting and the knitting-together lifestyle: the how-to, the when-to, the what-to, the why-to. Writing with wit and attitude (The Knitty-Gritty, Blocking for Blockheads), she explains the different types of needles and yarns (and sheep, too) and all the techniques from basic to fancy, knit to purl to cast-off. She also shares her special brand of corrective surgery for when things go wrong, and offers fun and informative sidebars on such topics as how to find the best yarn for less, how to make a buttonhole, knitting etiquette, and what tools to keep in your knitting bag. At the heart of the book are forty stylish patterns: Alien Scarf, Big Bad Baby Blanky, Mohair Hoodie, Kitty and Devil Hat, Cell Phone Cozy, and Wonder Woman Bikini. And for anyone interested: how to start a Stitch 'n Bitch group.

Love It!
I checked this book out of the library initially. When I found myself resisting returning it, even when others were waiting for it, I figured it was time to buy. This is a great resource for a beginner like me and contains at least 10 projects...

great tips for knitters
I love the tips for knitters, some that have not seen before, and i love the clear, explicit way that things are explained! I have been knitting for years, but have never run across some of this advice.

Good overview for beginners
No, this is not the most in-depth book you can find. But I'm a beginning knitter and am teaching myself to knit from this book, and so far I haven't had any problems.
