Twisted Stitch Sourcebook by Norah Gaughan's

Product Details

The essential guide for using simple cabled stitches to add interest and beauty to hand knits.

Master the simple and addictive art of the twist stitch. The basics are easy to learn, and the design possibilities (and twist combinations that appear once you get started) are nearly endless. The book begins with a treasure trove of twisted stitch variations, starting with patterns made from diagonals and building from there - adding horizontal and vertical elements, combining twisted stitches with lace or polygonal knitting, and pushing the envelope with patterns that twist stitches in each row for more advanced textures.

The book features more than 125 stitch patterns, along with tips on how twists are designed and how knitters can create their own patterns.
