Patty Lyons is an expert in all things knitting related - she will help you sort out your gauge, unpick problems like twisted stitches and generally spruce up your knitting know-how in this pocket-sized reference book packed full of her purls' of wisdom. Patty is a well-known knitting 'agony aunt' and she will hold your hand as you tackle the problems that often beset knitters and get in the way of beautiful finished projects.

Solve your knitting problems - from edges that won't behave to getting your tension right - with over 70 brand new knitting hacks! Inspired by questions asked by Patty's students from around the world, this book features tutorials for knitters of all levels.

This isn't like other how to knit' books with basic information about casting on and how to form stitches (although there is a handy how-to reference section at the back for when you need a refresher), this is a book about the why' of knitting. Not about why we knit' but about why we knit the way we do'. By digging deeper into the why' Patty doesn't just fix your knitting problems she helps you to truly understand why the yarn/stitches/needles/tension are acting in a certain way and how to fix any issues.

Cartoons by fan-favourite illustrator Franklin Habit and Patty's own humorous 'purls' of wisdom will resonate with knitters of all abilities and have you laughing while you learn.
