Synopsis:

In this collection of 19 articles from "Threads" magazine, knitting experts share design ideas and techniques to help readers create knits that flatter and fit and are enjoyable to make. Knitters will find practical information on how to: blend colours and fibres; make textural stitches; chart free-form geometric designs; make custom-embroidered embellishments, and inters; and create perfect ribbons, pockets and cardigan bands. It guides knitters through picking the fibre, colour and texture to choosing the finishing technique. The book is illustrated throughout and includes eight sweater schematics, two complete garment patterns plus numerous charts and stitch patterns.
