The book starts with a history of knitting and traces the craft from the 4th century to the present, it then follows with a discussion on why one should knit. You Can Design Your Own Knits is a chapter on how to add originality to an already creative art by designing knitwear of your own or, by improvising, projecting of yourself into things originally designed by other. How to Design gives the simple rules and mechanics of designing and making your own hand-knits, explaining step by step the rudimentary details on how to proceed. The section on Pattern Stitches provides a picture dictionary of over 300 beautiful pattern stitches. Detailed directions are given for each, and the patterns range from the very basic to the extremely intricate, grouped into sections of straight, horizontal, and diagonal ribbings, textured stitches, cables, lacy patterns and 2- or 3-color patterns, knit in designs and alphabet charts. Knitters Guide provides detailed illustrated step-by-step instructions on how-to knit, explaining all the techniques involved. Finally, Designer's Guide provides complete info on proportion, balance, shaping, and all other details involved in creating your own garment designs. Description text copyright 2011 BooksForComfort.
