Synopsis

In "Begin to Knit: All the Basic Stitches; Easy Novelty Stitches; Quick Things to Make," the American Thread Company presents a comprehensive guide that is both instructive and inspiring for novice knitters. The book expertly balances clear, step-by-step instructions with engaging illustrations, making it accessible for hobbyists of all skill levels. Notably, it situates itself within the broader trend of early 20th-century crafting literature that seeks to democratize textile arts, introducing an era in which domestic crafts gained renewed popularity. The manual encapsulates essential techniques in knitting while also offering novelty patterns, catering to the burgeoning community of knitters seeking both practicality and creativity in their projects. Founded in 1890, the American Thread Company has long been a pivotal force in the textile industry, known for its commitment to quality and innovation. The company's background in yarn production and its desire to empower individuals with practical skills likely inspired this publication. The authors, presumably comprised of seasoned practitioners, draw from their extensive expertise to ensure that readers grasp not only the 'how' of knitting but also the 'why,' situating this manual in a legacy of craftsmanship and self-sufficiency. This book is highly recommended for anyone interested in exploring the art of knitting, whether as a new hobby or a revisit to a cherished skill. Its organized approach and diverse projects provide the perfect entry point into the world of yarn and needles. Readers will find that "Begin to Knit" not only teaches them essential techniques but also stimulates the joy of creation, making it a valuable addition to any crafting library.

    A comprehensive primer that will have you hooking your way through simple to more difficult projects—with step-by-step photos!   Rug hooking at its simplest is pulling loops of colorful wool fabric through a piece of linen backing to create beautiful designs for the floor or wall.

In Basic Rug Hooking, you will learn what tools and materials you need to get started, and how to pull your first loops. Once you’ve learned and practiced the basics, you will be ready to try any of the five hooked projects included.

    Every marriage has its own melody… its own beat… its own rhythm. Marriages go through twists, turns, changes, and turnarounds. We are constantly learning what our rhythm is and will be. As a great DJ reads the mood of a crowd, learning when to play more of this or less of that, so do we manage the composition that is our marriage. It’s like the way a song doesn’t start as the finished product we hear on the radio. It often starts as a phrase or line that the artist finds meaning in, and it is developed through time, effort, trial, and error to become a full expression of the artist’s thoughts and emotions. Even after the song is recorded, the artist may not consider it to be finished. Whenever they perform it, they play it differently because they are different. The song evolves as they do. 
    While our song is not yet finished, we wrote this book to share how it has evolved from the beginning until now. The Rhythm of Love: 25 Things that 25 Years of Marriage Taught Us is a peek into our quarter-century together and a bit of the music we’ve made. In it, we reflect on how we reached this point, the successes and stumbles along the way, and the revisions that remain ongoing. So, if you’re a person who enjoys learning and growing through life’s ups and downs, dive in with us. In these pages, you will find out how we’ve learned, grown, and composed our melody… our beat… our rhythm.

    The 1993 World Chess Championship was one of the most eagerly anticipated clashes in the game's rich history. 
     
     
     
    On one side was Garri Kasparov, the greatest in a long line of Russian World Champions and a player whose remorseless aggression both in play and in person seemed to terrify his opponents. 
     
     
     
    Across the board was Nigel Short, a bespectacled, guitar-playing twenty-eight-year-old Lancastrian who had earned his place in the contest over a grueling three-year qualification campaign. 
     
     
     
    Their epic duel of the intellect was fought out in the full glare of the world's media and the intricacies of the battle captivated observers around the world—chess experts and novices alike. 
     
     
     
    The Inner Game is an intimate and gripping insider's account of this unique sporting contest. It reveals the secrets of chess at the highest level, from dirty tricks behind the scenes to bugged conversations, stolen tapes and sexual intrigue, and opens up the strange inner world of the Chess Grandmasters, men of a narrow but all-consuming passion.
