 Item #B01010 (Book) -- $30.00A Treasury of Knitting Patterns by Barbara G. Walker |
| Barbara Walker's top seller now reprinted! The most comprehensive collection of knitting patterns ever assembled, this book contains over 500 patterns gathered from many sourcesÐsome modern, some dating from the great periods of traditional knitting centuries ago. Each pattern is illustrated with complete directions, and most are accompanied by a descriptive text giving details about the origin and use of the pattern. The patterns are grouped into these categories: Simple Knit-Purl Combinations, Ribbings, Color-Change Patterns, Slip-Stitch Patterns, Twist Stitch Patterns, Fancy Texture Patterns, Patterns Made with Yarn-over Stitches, Eyelet Patterns, Lace, Cables, and Cable-Stitch Patterns. Of any handiwork, knitting offers the greatest number of variations, and new patterns continue to be invented, so no collection can claim to be complete. However, Ms. Walker is the first to assemble such a large number of knitting patterns in one reference, to be treasured by knitters everywhere. 302 pages, soft bound. Barbara Walker's Second, Third and Fourth Treasuries of Knitting Patterns are also available, as well as a special price for the entire set.
