Knitting Rules!: The Yarn Harlot's Bag of Knitting Tricks by Stephanie Pearl-McPhee
Knitting Rules!: The Yarn Harlot's Bag of Knitting Tricks

I love this book! Information is given in a humorous and informative way. She jokes about herself and shares stories of her own as she provides us her expertise. Lots of useful advice such as how to figure out how much yarn is in a skein, what kind of darn yarn is it (no ballband) and tricks on how to knit various items more easily. I highly recommend this book to any knitter!
