The Readers Digest Guide to Knitting is very good... also a little spiral-bound book called the Knitter's Companion. I think there's also a knitting web ring... you may be able to find something there. I don't know offhand a home page for it but I'm sure you could search on the Almighty Google. Also try the Knitting & Crochet Guild of America, or the Craft Yarn Council websites. Again, I don't know the addresses offhand, but a search ought to bring them right up.
