This isn't like other how to knit' books with basic information about casting on and how to form stitches (although there is a handy how-to reference section at the back for when you need a refresher), this is a book about the why' of knitting. Not about why we knit' but about why we knit the way we do'. By digging deeper into the why' Patty doesn't just fix your knitting problems she helps you to truly understand why the yarn/stitches/needles/tension are acting in a certain way and how to fix any issues. She starts by looking at the basics and explores the anatomy of a stitch, examining how this affects the look, feel and shape of the finished knitted fabrics and how different knitting techniques affect the finished outcome. Patty examines the problems caused by common mistakes that many knitters make without even noticing before diving into more complex knitting issues and how to trouble shoot them. All of Patty's techniques and tips are illustrated with detailed step-by-step artworks for absolute clarity."--Amazon.]]></description><link>https://stmarys.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S12C744752</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://stmarys.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S12C744752</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Lyons, Patty]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 31 Jan 2024 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://stmarys.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/744752012</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>The Official Workbook, Hands-on Exerises to Improve your Knitting Skills</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781446313558/MC.GIF&amp;client=strtp&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Quilt Out Loud]]></title><description><![CDATA["Explore language through quilting.

Zero Waste Blocks offers a modern approach to sustainable sewing. Using natural fabrics and core sewing techniques, learn how to stitch without waste and make a scandi-style collection of 20 garments. Zero waste pattern cutting is a bit like a puzzle. You use a pre-determined length of fabric end to end by strategically planning your pattern pieces so that everything is used and then draw them onto the fabric. By using this unique 'paperless' method you can eliminate both textile and paper waste from your sewing projects and take the fear out of learning to self draft and sew your own clothing. This book includes 5 simple zero waste pattern blocks-- a t-shirt, skirt, tank top, shirt and trousers. These can then be used to make a further 15 projects by making simple changes or mixing and matching your blocks into new designs, and comes with pattern layout instructions and templates to make sizes US 2-26. Once you have mastered the 5 blocks the possibilities are endless.]]></description><link>https://stmarys.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S12C728776</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://stmarys.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S12C728776</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Helmersson, Birgitta]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 31 Jan 2023 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://stmarys.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/728776012</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>20 Projects to Sew your Own Wardrobe</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781787139244/MC.GIF&amp;client=strtp&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Bohemian Blooms]]></title><description><![CDATA["Following a Crochet Along style project is an incredibly popular way for home crafters to create projects in bite-size pieces and this stunning design from Jane Crowfoot not only offers crochet fans the chance to work through one of her famous and ground-breaking designs, but it will also help build skills and techniques while creating a truly beautiful heirloom crochet piece using luxurious yarns.
