Product Description
Product Description
Unleash your creativity with 200 versatile and innovative knitting stitches
Experiment with texture, cables, embossing and openwork, add edges and borders to a knitted garment or customize ready-made items.
Every stitch is shown as a clear swatch to show the effect and texture, and the pattern is given both written and as an easy-to-follow diagram. It conveniently groups stitches to allow for easy browsing and location of favourites.
It includes projects that feature some of the stitches, and shows how effective it is to incorporate new and different stitches into your work.

Lots of patterns - obviously - and I liked the fact that there were written instructions for each stitch pattern not just a chart as in some other books.

Although my wife is an excellent knitter, sometimes new stitches in magazines may use different ways of explaining what to do. This book helps in understanding some of these. It is also useful if you have a bit of imagination to anable you to create your own patterns.

There are a lot of stitches in this book but I've been very disapointed in it as the abbreviations are the American version which I find a bit complicated and long winded and sometimes quite hard to follow, and are decidedly different to the English version.
The book itself has been well written with plenty of clear pictures and if you are used to the American way of knitting you'll probably love it.
