The Shape of Knitting

A Master Class in Increases, Decreases and Other Forms of Shaping

Lynne Barr

Description

Innovative designer Lynne Barr gives readers a fascinating, in-depth master class on the techniques that can be used to shape flat and dimensional pieces of knitting – increases, decreases, short rows, dividing and combining stitches, and adding sections.

She both reviews tried-and-true methods, explaining their pros and cons, and showcases many new ones that she has masterminded herself. To illustrate the best uses of these innovations, she includes 24 fashion-fresh, easy-to-wear projects, focusing mainly on accessories that can be finished quickly, such as scarves, cowls, shawls, hats and mittens.

Fun, cool photos of the finished designs combined with clear, close-up, step-by-step photos make this ground-breaking book both beautiful and hardworking.
