stitchionary
Friday, April 27, 2012Stitchionary volume one knit & purl
250 stitch patterns from Vogue Knitting.
This book is amazing. Divided into four chapters by stitch pattern: Knit & Purl, Lace, Traveling and Unusual Stitches.
I just love the beginning... how to use this book. It is honestly one of the easiest most comprehensive, well written knitting books I have ever had my hands on.
Each chapter is arranged from easiest stitch pattern to most challenging. Truly a wealth of information for the novice knitter or the seasoned.
