Get ready to try this great knitting style and make beautiful garments! With the help of author Anna Dervout, you'll soon have colorwork spilling off your needles with ease, as you create delicate, modern patterns for women and children alike to wear.
Colorwork refers to a technique used to knit patterns in multiple colors; it requires the simultaneous use of several different colors in the same row. Colorwork is used for sweaters, hats, scarves and mittens, but also a wide range of accessories (cushions, Christmas stockings or coasters). An understanding of colorwork paves the way to integrating a vast range of knitting motifs: horizontal, vertical, geometric or stand-alone. Anna's patterns are designed to be, above all, relaxing for the knitter; they are written in a clear manner, accessible to beginners, and are also size inclusive. Anna does the hard work of demystifying this traditional knitting technique so that it no longer holds any secrets.
