 Item #B01336 (Book) -- $20.95 Sold OutTreasury of Machine Knitting Stitches by John Allen |
| John Allen's Treasury of Machine Knitting Stitches is a wonderful resource book, full of different stitches and ideas for exploiting them. Written to appeal both the novice and the experienced machine knitter, it aims to provide a dictionary of stitch constructions: the kind of reference book that is essential for knitters. The author draws on his wide experience of teaching and conducting workshops to present an exciting array of stitches covering the structures of tuck stitch, lace, weaving, jacquards, cut float techniques, partial knitting, needle out effects and edgings and braids. The stitch patterns are designed to fit any standard twenty-four (24) needle repeat, so are applicable to all punch card and electronic machines, while many of the stitches can be knitted on most basic machines without punch card facilities. More than just a stitch dictionary, the book contains alternative ideas for interpretation and encourages the exploitation of color and texture to create beautiful designs. 178 pages soft back. |
