Product Description
Product Description
Along with colour and silhouette, texture and dimension play a vital role in the interest of a design. 'Cables & Arans' is a one-stop reference for inspiration, brimming with 250 texture-friendly designs to delight knitters of all skill levels. An Oxo Ripple makes a dapper stitch for a man's scarf and a Medallion Ripple enhances any basic jumper. A Honeycomb Pattern is an excellent choice for a sumptuous and cosy afghan. All swatches are worked in updated yarns, beautifully photographed and accompanied by easy-to-follow instructions. 'Cables & Arans', along with 'Knit & Purl' and 'Lace & Eyelets', is one of the premier titles of this new series. 'The Harmony Guides' have been longstanding references for handcrafters for more than thirty years. C&B is proud to announce that internationally renowned best-selling author and knitting expert Erica Knight will be steering the series on its new journey. All titles will be fully revised and updated with eye-catching photography and innovative new stitches, but also never forgetting the heritage of the guides, these really will be the only reference titles on any knitter's bookshelves.

Like the other books in this series, not well organised. It would be far more useful to the serious knitter if the patterns were grouped by similar types. Also, why do some of the patterns have a chart while others don't?
There are also random helpful hints that are scattered throughout the book - which are difficult to go back and find when you need them. A little too random. It seems like the look of the book has taken priority over the usefulness of the book.
Beautiful photos, but doesn't match up to other books available at the moment.

There is so much of value in this book, so many different patterns - and
I am keeping it close at hand - Might even try making up a pattern. Because
if you are new to Aran and Cable - there are so many neat instructions - so
easy to follow - get yourself a little cable needle and start
