With the more than 250 old and new knitting patterns displayed in 300 colorful photos, knitters can make their creative fashion dreams come true. Of course, the collection includes a selection of remarkably simple, yet stunningly beautiful, knit and purl stitches. But there's much more: Brioche stitch patterns that result in a voluminous and very soft knit; Cable patterns for decorating rustic sweaters and jackets; Openwork and See-Through variations; traditional multi-colored and single knit Jacquard or Norwegian style; Aran and British fisherman patterns; and Rib, Lace, and Patchwork designs. Each one comes with easy to follow knitting charts, patterns, and descriptions for effortless success, and advice on which needles to use and how to combine it with other stitches.

Reviews
For the avid knitter, there can never be too many yarns or patterns. So expect regular stitchers to embrace Klopper's compendium of 250-plus choices, even though the visual and written directions will be far too abbreviated for many to follow. The book leads off with a look at the history of knitting, tracing the craft back to its first mention in 1530, when it was practiced by Arabic nomads. An important reference follows: four pages explaining the knitting charts and patterns. Fourteen chapters then showcase the samples, separated by techniques, from rib and cable to Aran Isle and lace-trimming patterns. Each features a color photograph of a finished sample, a chart of instructions, and written directions. Unfortunately, level of difficulty isn't indicated. Barbara Jacobs
