In Their Own Words

The Essential Guide to Color Knitting Techniques

|

As implied by the title, this is a comprehensive reference book to color knitting techniques. There are complete chapters on stripes, pattern stitches, knitting with multicolor yarns, stranded knitting, and intarsia, covering both the theory and the how-to behind each method. Additional chapters offer insights into less well-known techniques such as mosaic knitting, shadow knitting, twined knitting and entrelac. Projects scattered throughout the book provide the opportunity to test out these techniques, and chapters on color theory for knitters and garment design round out this beautiful, densely illustrated book.
