Over 25 Motifs to Personalize and Embellish Your Knitwear

Diana Loug

Description

Add the perfect finishing touch to your handmade or shop-bought knitwear: use simple embroidery techniques to create tactile, contemporary and completely unique results.

Knit stitches make a uniform, textured base that is ideal for embroidery. The final effect is a beautiful, raised design that combines the detail and charm of embroidery with the soft, tactile feel of knitting. This high-end effect is fun and simple to achieve. The author guides you through over 25 gorgeous designs to embroider onto your knitwear, along with tips on which types of yarn are most suitable, and advice on getting the best results.

From graphic shapes like crosses, squares and hearts, to awe-inspiring florals and fruit, there are designs for everyone. Use the full-size embroidery diagrams and positioning illustrations, along with the colour and stitch guides, to ensure you get the best results.

There's advice on playing with colours, too, if you're looking to adapt the designs for a bolder look, or to achieve a more muted, calmer palette. The designs are perfect for mending and repairs: embroider onto tired knitted garments and accessories to not only extend their lifespan but to make them completely unique.
