Choosing Books
Frequently asked questions
Which book should a beginner knitter buy?
How to Start Knitting from Search Press. It photographs every step, starts with casting on and finishes with a first project.
Which book should a beginner crocheter buy?
You Can Crochet with Bella Coco. It teaches the stitches with clear photos and works up to simple projects, in UK terms.
Do your crochet books use UK or US terms?
Both, depending on the publisher. Shelley Husband and Search Press books use UK terms; some overseas titles use US. The first page says which, and converting is a one line chart.
What are the granny square books?
Shelley Husband's Granny Square Academy 1 and 2, Granny Square Flair, Granny Square Patchwork and Granny Square Garden, plus 20 Granny Squares to Crochet and the Granny Square card decks from Search Press. Academy is the place to start.
Do you have amigurumi books?
Yes: The Beginner's Guide to Amigurumi, Cuddly Animals to Crochet, Amigurumi People, Pica Pau 2, Aquatic Amigurumi 2 and The Gnomes of Grimblewood, plus the Mini Amigurumi Animals card deck.
Can I buy the yarn a book uses?
Often, and where we do not stock the exact yarn we can match the ply. Bring the book in or email the pattern and we will suggest a substitute.
What is a stitch card deck?
A boxed set of cards, one stitch or motif per card, with the chart and instructions. Easier to prop up beside you than a book, and good for choosing stitches for your own designs.
Do you sell pattern books for Patons and Cleckheaton yarn?
Yes, under Patterns rather than Books: the Patons, Cleckheaton and Panda pattern books and leaflets written for their yarns.
