Description

The New Knitting Stitch Dictionary is a fresh, contemporary reference for knitters who love texture, structure, and creative exploration. With 500 patterns for textures, lace, aran cables, colorwork, motifs, edgings, and more. Clearly charted and photographed, this book goes beyond basics!

Each stitch is presented with a clear chart, written instructions, and a high-quality swatch photo—making it easy to use whether you’re a chart lover or a written-pattern knitter. The layouts are clean and practical, so you can flip right to what you need mid-project.

The stitches are divided into sections by type of stitch to make it easy to find what you want: texture, lace, cables, Aran cables, flower and leaf patterns, bobbles, lifted stitches, Fair Isle, intarsia, borders, and more. Instructions for each stitch are charted so that you can easily visualize the pattern and use it in your own design. You will find this stitch dictionary to be an invaluable reference on your knitting bookshelf.
