Knitters! Drop your needles for a minute to help!

Okay, part of my 'winter goals' while I've got a school break was to learn to knit & crochet. I'm going for knitting first. I've found a few videos online & my grandma has some old pamphlets she's loaned me, but I was thinking of getting myself a shiny new book for the occasion, seeing as we don't have any recent knitting books.

What are your favorite ones that are actually worth the twentyish bucks you've gotta fork out for 'em?
