A friend out of our area asked me what is a good book to get to learn
how to knit in color, 3 or more colors. I was lucky and had a close
relative that knitted many items in several or more colors

I have not seen any that show how to carry the yarn in the back and etc.

Any good recommendations please.

Hugs & God bless,
Dennis & Gail

Like what, Fair Isle? Is your friend looking for technique or for
charts?

Thank you Wooly,

Yes to both Wooly. I have not seen any books as I said on how to carry
the yarn in the back. I usually fasten the yarn every 6th or 7th
stitch. I tried to explain it but was little help.

Thanks for the fast response,
Dennis

Thank you Mirjum,

I thank the book Tamar mentioned will be good. It is hard to pass info
over phone and they do not have a computer. I was taught years ago.

Hugs & God bless,
Dennis & Gail
