Good evening.

I purchased "Cast on, bind off" by Cap Sease, ISBN 978-1-60468-429-2.
The book is very good, but it contains the same photo repeated throughout page 28 to 31, and another one repeated also from 79 to 80.
How can I have a error free copy, maybe form a different edition?

Oh dear, Ruby, we're so sorry! Please give us a call at 1-800-426-3126 and we'll make it right - thanks for contacting us! --Martingale customer service

Cast On, Bind Off is an excellent reference book to have in your Knitting Library.

It includes instructions for 211 techniques and suggestions for which method you should use based on the type of project you are knitting.

Cast on, Bind Off also includes precise written instructions with colour photography to walk you through each technique.

Suggestions for pairing different bind off and cast on methods are also included - to help you achieve similar edges on your finished piece.

I think this book is an excellent resource for any Knitter's library - from beginner to advanced.

This useful and inspiring book, now available in paperback, is destined to become a frequent reference in my library.
Laurel Strand and Robin Strobel have done a fine job of drawing each procedure in a way that can be easily seen and understood. Brent Kane's photography shows every detail. And Cap herself outlines each step in clear prose.
Cap includes an extremely useful table near the front of the book which gives important traits of cast ons and bind offs (such as durability and elasticity) and then lists the names (and page numbers) of procedures which have those traits. Another table associates look-alike cast ons and bind offs to create matching edges.
I can't wait to try some of the procedures in this book, which I strongly recommend for both designers and sample knitters for publication. But any knitter would benefit from the range of techniques---many of them simple---given in this volume.
