The first chapter provides an overview of the various types of novelty yarns (eyelash, fuzz, fur, ribbon, metallic, multistrand, chunky, and jelly), basic knitting techniques (such as casting on, knitting, purling, increasing, decreasing, and binding off), and helpful hints for working with novelty yarns (keeping track of your stitch count, keeping yarns tangle-free, the best winding methods for each type of yarn). The projects offer cute, snuggly style that would fit either gender, as well as special designs just for girls (Satin Slippers, Cozy Leg Warmers, Ballerina Halter) and boys (Monster Mittens, Fuzzy Beanie, Squiggly Sweater).
