I just thought of another excellent book for beginning knitters:
A First Book of Knitting for Children , by Bonnie Gosse and Jill Allerton. It shows all the basics, including how to unknit if you make a mistake. It has lots of nice little animal patterns and verses to help you remember the steps. You can get it from
A Child's Dream Come True .
