Hi,
This sounds pretty good, I am not seeing the name of  the book though. Am I 
missing it somewhere?

Thanks, Beverly

Subject: [Nfb-krafters-korner]  Book The Principles of Knitting

Hello All:



I came across  this book at BookShare. It is a very large book and I have
found many  chapters to be quite helpful to me, especially the chapter  on
swatches/gages. I thought many of you might find it of interest  too.



I have copied the Table of Contents below for your  reference.
