## Description

I know of no home-craft that enjoys the universal popularity of knitting. ' James Norbury's The Penguin Knitting Book , first published in 1957 and packed with wonderfully nostalgic patterns, is the classic guide, now reissued for a modern audience. Along with telling you how to knit, The Penguin Knitting Book includes a wide-range of original vintage patterns. Here you'll find hats and scarves, jumpers, cardigans, baby clothes, even a tea cosy and a coat for the family dog, in this charming guide to better knitting.
