Now in paperback! Imagine a softly striped crib blanket knit in the comforting colours of the nursery. Or a sophisticated cashmere wrap featuring rich jewel tones that set off a favourite black dress. Knitting teacher and author Margaret Radcliffe presents a world of colour techniques in a single comprehensive reference that you'll consult every time two or more yarn colours are in play.
Stitchers of every ability level will love the colour-combining methods and professional secrets revealed in The Essential Guide to Color Knitting Techniques. Multicolour knitting techniques are explained with step-by-step illustrations and photographs accompanied by instructive text.
Complete chapters on stripes, stitch effects, succeeding with multicolour yarns, stranded knitting, and intarsia cover the theory and how-to behind each method and offer creative solutions for handling tangled yarn, estimating yarn quantities of each colour, holding on to all those ends, and employing stunning finishing techniques.
A final chapter describes more unusual techniques, such as helix, shadow, mosaic, and modular knitting.
