Learn how to knit with plain-English instructions explaining how to read and follow patterns.

There's a new generation of knitters out there, turning the traditional image of granny-knitters on its head. Everyone has heard of the mantra 'knitting is the new yoga', but you might not be lucky enough to have a knitting friend hanging around to show you the ropes and get you started on your very first row. The so-called 'beginners’ patterns' that you might turn to can also be confusing, difficult to follow, and more often than not written in 'knit' rather than English.

Knitty Gritty is a tried-and-tested guide for complete beginners, with simple guidance and patterns for projects that you can use to make that first all-important step 'Beyond the Scarf'.

Aneeta Patel is an artist and knitting teacher living in East London. She has taught knitting professionally for several years and holds classes all over London. Specialising in beginners' knitting, Aneeta runs special events, knitting parties, group and one-on-one teaching sessions. She also runs Knitting SOS, a free service offering emergency knitting advice to (often frantic) knitters; it is held via a monthly drop-in clinic, telephone, text and email. For more information, see www.knittingsos.co.uk. Aneeta is involved with the Working Well Trust, a charity for Bangladeshi women with mental health problems and in collaboration with an art therapist, she also runs a workshop called 'Knitting for Quitting', helping smokers to give up.
