Shaping Knitting delves into stitch structure and how different
stitches work together to alter not just the thickness of the
knitting but also its shaping, and how this can be harnessed when
making both fabric and garments. Written for knitters and
designers, it encourages exploration and experimentation with the
aim of gaining a greater understanding of knitted textures,
patterns and shaping. This book looks at the reasons for knitting
in different directions and at the advantages of beginning at the
top, the side or at any point, as well as the traditional bottom
edge. It can also be used as a reference book or as a starting
point on a journey into knitting. Alison Ellen takes a special
approach to designing, playing with stitches and the direction of
knitting to allow the structure of the fabric itself and the
three-dimensional form of the garment to emerge seamlessly
together.
