Book excerpt: Continental knitting is a technique that is admired by everybody but feared by most. This instructional book will show how easy and logical it is to transform from crocheting to knitting the continental way. Imagine not needing to sew garment pieces together! Brrr! Sewing! The crochet hook and a slipstitch (referred to as a chain stitch) would be the quickest technique to accomplish this. The Continental Way is faster, more accurate, and easier on your hands and wrists. Knitting the Continental Way, as Denise would say, is the only way!
