<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Statement of responsibility inferred from acknowledgments (page 288).<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>A perfect gift for creative crafters, <i> 750 Knitting Stitches </i>is both a stitch guide and a how-to knit primer, all in one volume. You get all the information needed to get started, including how to choose yarn and needles, read patterns, work basic stitches, how to check gauge, increase and decrease, join pieces and finish projects and care for your knitted items. <p/>The comprehensive pattern library includes 750 knitting stitches, from simple to ornate, including knit and purl patterns, basic and complex cables, Fair Isles and intarsia designs, and rib and edging patterns. Each is fully explained with instructions and accompanied by a full-color photo of a sample knitted swatch. All swatches are worked in updated yarns, beautifully photographed and accompanied by easy-to-follow instructions. <p/>Based on The Harmony Guides, which have been a longstanding and valued reference for handcrafters for more than thirty years, with over half a million worldwide sales, this edition is updated with eye-catching photography and innovative new stitches, but also never forgetting the heritage of the guides. <p/>With <i>750 Knitting Stiches</i> you can knit, purl, cable and yarn over your way through 750 stitches to create any number of beautiful pieces. This really will be the only stitch guide and reference title needed on any knitter's bookshelves.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><P> ERIKA KNIGHT is a renowned design consultant to the fashion and yarn industry.
