Knitting for Anarchists

Useful little tome on knitting by Anna Zilboorg, in which she successfully deconstructs the mechanics of knitting, in order to show how things can be done better: casting on, decreases, cabling, multi-color and lace patterns, etc. Definitely not a book for beginners, and in fact I will need to look at this book again if/when I attempt steeking and making the perfect buttonhole.

Particularly lovely description of knitting:

[We] can make good use of a craft that is easy to pick up and put down, that is soothingly rhythmic to make time pass peaceably, and that gives us things that are personal and lovely.
