Born in the UK, swiftly relocated to the US, EZ (as she is affectionately known) revitalised knitting, and especially the genre of books associated with getting better at it. Knitters - social knitters, at least - know Elizabeth Zimmermann. This is because it is fantastic, in every respect. I dip into it every few months it's dog-eared and scribbled in, and I've lent it out to at least two other new-ish knitters (usually just after I've taught them to knit for themselves). I have read Knitting Without Tears cover-to-cover twice in the four-ish years since I got my own copy of it. Niche review time! I wish it weren't so niche, actually - I think KWT has an awful lot to recommend it, and not just to knitters.
