Product Description

Review

Knitted jackets are ideal for a crisp autumn day and the 20 designs in this collection explore a range of styles and techniques. Most of the designs feature a loose, flowing or boxy style which is easy to wear and fantastic for layering over long or short sleeves and is relaxed enough to wear around the house as winter sets in. The designs feature colour and texture without overwhelming the wearer or the yarn, making them really wearable, versatile pieces which will flatter many of your favourite looks. Patterns are written to fit two to four sizes, although as many of the garments have been designed to be loose, they may suit a wider range of sizes than the numbers suggest.-Simply Knitting

Product Description

Show your personal style with "Knitted Jackets", a folk-inspired collection of fun-to-knit and easily wearable designs from designer Cheryl Oberle. These appealing patterns make folk traditions modern and range from extremely simple to moderately involved, are 'knitter friendly', and are especially flattering to every figure. Worn to protect, to identify, and to adorn, some type of jacket is currently found in nearly every culture.This collection of eighteen-plus hand knitted, modern jacket designs is inspired by textiles and cultures from around the globe. A variety of techniques and clearly written instructions gives knitters an opportunity to showcase and expand their skills. Each section focuses on a particular knitting technique, and each garment is accompanied by a beautiful photo and the history or folk lore that illuminates the culture of origin. Projects include easy step-by-step instructions and color technique illustrations. Countries represented include Austria, Germany, England, Canada, United States, China, Japan, Peru, Spain, Norway, Faroe Islands, and Ireland with several variations. Techniques include lace making, cabling, color work, and more. "Knitted Jackets" takes the knitter on a world tour to find inspiration for incredibly beautiful creations that can be worn every day.

3.0 out of 5 stars it's American, 3 Feb 2010
By Lizzie Lincoln (Lincolnshire UK) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Knitted Jackets: 20 Designs from Classic to Contemporary (Paperback)
This is an interesting book with some excellent designs - but it's American! If you are experienced and have all the relevant conversions re: needle size and types of yarn then that's not so bad. However, the yarns used are brand named and not specifically a type so you will need to be very careful before you buy any yarn to make a design. I recommend you try some scrap yarn to work out tension squares before you spend a lot of money! I usually try to see if knitting books are American before purchase, but I missed this one!

3.0 out of 5 stars Knitted jackets 20 designs, 6 Nov 2009
By D. E. Crawford - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Knitted Jackets: 20 Designs from Classic to Contemporary (Paperback)
Good selection of patterns but some knitters would like to see less charts or both charts and written patterns. I for one are put off knitting from a chart, especially when it is a fairly simple pattern
