1.A Fine Fleece: Knitting with Handspun YarnsA Fine Fleece: Knitting with Handspun Yarns
from Potter Craft
Price: $19.80

Customer Review:
I do not spin - I bought the book solely for the patterns. Wow - they are all fabulous. I want to make them all!!! I love the fact that she has a couple of topdown sweaters in the book (no seaming). Even the scarves are beautiful. I am going to cast on Rhinebeck tonight with some beautiful dream in... more info

from Quarry Books
Price: $19.79

Customer Review:
I am relatively new to spinning, so my handspun is never perfect and even, but it is fun and I like it. This book gives the opportunity to think of yarn itself as a freestanding piece of art. It is exciting to see the colors and interaction of fibers in making a ball of yarn. Perhaps it is possible... more info

4.The Whole Craft of Spinning: From the Raw Material to the Finished YarnThe Whole Craft of Spinning: From the Raw Material to the Finished Yarn
from Dover Publications
Price: $6.95

Customer Review:
This is a good, basic, spinning book. However.....
It need an update! There is a Sources of supply section, at the back of the book. Not one online link! Published in 1981, with no updates on sources? That is my only negative.

5.Color in SpinningColor in Spinning
from Interweave Press

Customer Review:
Deb Menz's book brings a scientific approach to concocting dye colors and than getting them on to wool. I have found her formulas easy to use and reproducible. Her instructions on blending colors on the drum carder are invaluable to a novice like myself. Her book is front and center in my dye studio... more info

from Interweave Press
Price: $16.47

Customer Review:
Just my 2 cents but I thought this was full of pretty pictures but hard to follow the formula they give to make your own patterns. Not my favorite knitting book and wish I had skipped buying it. Pretty cover though....

9.Knitting With Dog Hair: Better A Sweater From A Dog You Know and Love Than From A Sheep You ll Never MeetKnitting With Dog Hair: Better A Sweater From A Dog You Know and Love Than From A Sheep You'll Never Meet
from St. Martin's Griffin
Price: $13.67

Customer Review:
As fun and quirky as this is, perhaps a dog hair sweater isn't that great an idea. Imagine what you'll smell like if you get caught in the rain. You're lible to be tossed off public transportation because of the smell of wet dog.
Maybe you could just knit a dog bed or a dog sweater instead?... more info
