Many of these new people coming to knitting want simple, quick designs that look great but which will not take them weeks to make. Easy Knits has over 25 irresistible designs that are straightforward and quick to knit - but which look fabulous. It includes plenty of ideas for new babies, from simple wraps to socks and scarves; sweaters, cardigans and jackets for toddlers and older children; and ideas for adults that range from a Guernsey-style sweater to an alpaca polo neck.

Format:Paperback
Debbie Bliss is strongly promoted by Rowan, which led me to believe this would be an excellent choice. However I found the instructions sparse, sloppy, and even inaccurate (p.10, one is told to knit, but the row should be purl; p 46, the collar as given is not wide enough to hide the joining seam; p.26, the 'corner' of the border is unnecessarily complex); the designs careless (p.8, button and bow get in each other's way) not well fitting (these bootees are too wide on the leg, and cannot be tightened as the bows are only decorative) and not thorough (3 sizes for the jacket may be given, but only one for the matching bootees).
Only someone experienced could work out ways of altering these designs to improve them. Very disappointing.

my wife had this out at the local library three times and decided she wanted to own it, the used copy was an ex library item in as new condition with a few stamps on the inner leaf, very pleased as I had never even thought of buying a used book online before, from now on it will be my first option

Have bought most of Debbie Bliss books. I find that this one is just as good as all her other knitting books. The patterns are bright and cheerful. With easy to follow instructions. I would recommend this book.
