Picture Knitting like you've NEVER seen--and a LOT more from baby to adult
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
This classic knitting book is mainly for the lover of picture knitting (such as intarsia.) The most astonishing pattern in the book is a representation of Hiroshige's Wave, that Japanese block print with a huge blue and white ocean wave. There are also quite a few children's sweaters and knits, including ballerina items like legwarmers and ballerina tops. Ski sweaters abound, Nowegian classic patterns, and there are baby items such as a beautiful patchwork blanket and a nice mohair layette. For kids, some special parkas with animal head hoods--a new take on the hoodie that is sure to delight any child or grandma. These animal sweaters could easily be used for Halloween costumes or Easter or Christmas pageants. The book ends with Thirties-style shells and tanks in lacy knitting. A very versatile book that never seems to go out of style, despite some Eighties-over-the-top flamboyant shapes and patterns. Could end up being the one knitting book you use over and over again.
