With no-nonsense instructions and diagrams, knitting guru Sharon
Brant takes you through all the stages of creating a perfectly
fitting sweater, cardigan or jacket. From recognising what styles
will suit your body shape best, to decoding measurements hidden in
patterns, to adjusting all elements of a garment, this is the book
knitters have been waiting for.
Now available in paperback, this best-selling title is THE
essential guide to knitting. Whether you want to knit socks, use
sequins and embroidery to embellish knitting, adapt a pattern to
fit you beautifully or produce the perfect pocket, you can find out
how to do it here. A comprehensive chapter on finishing your
projects shows you how to get that really professional look and if
you do make a mistake, just flip to the 'Troubleshooting' chapter
to see how to fix it. Each chapter of this essential guide is
devoted to one key area of knitting and provides clear and concise
in-depth instructions along with step-by-step instructions for
basic principles and more advanced techniques. Learn the basic knit
and purl stitches, along with cast ons and cast offs, and in no
time you will also be increasing and decreasing with ease. Once
you're comfortable with the basic stitches, explore structure and
shaping, texture, colourwork, embellishments, finishing and learn
how to design and adapt patterns. This comprehensive guide offers a
useful section on crochet for knitting, a glossary of terms, clear
instructions and hundreds of illustrations and diagrams showing
each stage of the process. It'll be the one resource that you will
turn to time and time again. Over 20,000 copies sold worldwide.
