Review by Lorraine Douglas.
excerpt:
Would you believe that over the years a corker has been called a corking spool, spool loom, spool knitter, knitting spool, knitting knobby, knitting Nancy and even a Bizzy Lizzy? Nobody seems to know where all these names came from, but corking has always been fun and easy no matter what you call it. By taking up corking, you'll be carrying on an old, treasured craft.
Judy Ann Sadler has created another excellent craft book in the ``Kids Can Easy Crafts" series. Her books use everyday household items in innovative projects. She explains how to make a small corker from a toilet roll tube and a large corker from a tin can. The steps involved in knitting the tube of yarn are clearly shown in the illustrations and text.
Highly recommended.
