Designed to empower knitters with practical knowledge of how yarn becomes fabric and to boost confidence in tackling common obstacles and mistakes made during the process, this knitting how-to guides fiber artists to success in their craft by explaining each word of standard knitting instructions. This illustrated guide offers classically-designed swatch exercises--such as knit-and-purl patterns, cables, shaping, and lace--that can later be combined to create pillow covers, throws, or scarves, in addition to tutorials on how to identify stitches that are properly mounted and master basic stitch movements and math required for each exercise. Promoting a deeper understanding of knitting and its facets and encouraging a bold approach to some of the more complex and daunting knitting styles and designs, this informative manual is essential in assisting knitters of all levels in gaining crafting mastery., The Step-By-Step Guide to Knitting ConfidenceHow can you create knitted pieces in rounds, squares, and tubes without mis-shaping, dropping stitches or destroying the original design? No worries! As author Jennifer E. Seiffert explains in her book Fearless Knitting Workbook, there are 4 ways to effectively shape your knitting without breaking a sweat.1) Changing the number of stitchesThe most common, stress-free way to create shapes is to add or remove stitches at either end of a row or within a row.2) Changing the GaugeNeed to change the width without changing the number of stitches? Don't fret, just change the gauge by changing your stitch pattern or changing the size of your needles.3) Knitting "Short-rows"Ready to change the length of part of a piece? Simply create a short-row by knitting across only some of the stitches on the needle.4) Adding Onto the Side of a Piece of KnittingConcerned about making a piece wider? Master this technique by knitting onto your piece in a different direction with a "pick up and knit" stitch.You can gain strength and confidence in your shaping with these 4 steps through classically designed swatch exercises, easy-to-understand language and step-by-step directionsConquer your knitting fearsDon't let other knitting hang-ups like finishing steps and yarnovers get in the way of a beautiful finished project.
