Library Journal
This is the 20th title in the "Vogue Knitting on the Go" series-a topical series of knitwear projects in small hardcover format suitable for carrying in a knitting basket or tote bag. With the beginning knitter in mind, this volume devotes almost half of the book to knitting instruction as well as mini-lessons on topics like felting, dyeing with Kool-Aid, and making pompoms for hats. Projects include many easily accomplished scarves as well as hats, children's clothes, and a sampler baby blanket. A standardized yarn weight system table makes it easier for the reader to substitute yarns for the luxury fibers used in some of the projects. The reasonable price makes this a good choice for even smaller public libraries. Copyright 2003 Reed Business Information.\

Well indeed, I don't know who these "beginners" are but I guess I'll be looking for the "pre-beginner" series. I should have been tipped off by the "Vogue". I remember when I was learning to sew, we never looked at the "Vogue" patterns -- only the "Simplicity" and maybe "McCalls"...Nice try KB. I did LOVE the picture on the cover though!
