About
The book begins with a selection of swathes based on different combinations of the basic knit and purl stitches, which can be used to create a surprising variety of different textured fabrics. It then covers a range of cable and Aran stitches, before moving on to an array of delicate lace knitting stitches.
A section on colorwork contains stitches based on traditional Scottish and Scandinavian patterns knitted using both the Fair Isle and Instarsia technique. The final section concentrates on edgings and trims, from simple yet decorative ribs to intricate lace borders.
With a guide to the best tools and equipment, detailed instructions on how to knit, and information on reading stitch diagrams and understanding knitting abbreviations, this is the only knit stitch reference you'll need.
