Drawing on the idea of inclusivity and a hand-neutral language, this book shows how describing stitches by their structure and movement—rather than by which hand performs them—can make knitting clearer and more accessible for everyone.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eIn this book, you will find practical advice on how to read right-handed knitting patterns. However, it is not a comprehensive knitting manual. It is a guide for left-handed knitters to navigate standard knitting patterns, and an invitation for pattern designers, teachers, and guilds to reconsider how knitting is communicated. Small shifts in language can remove barriers and change how knitting is experienced by crafters.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Unknown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67641688359148,"sku":"9781036955038","price":84.0,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9781036955038-knitting-against-the-grain-left-handed-knitting-1.jpg?v=1791248642","url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/products\/knitting-against-the-grain-left-handed-knitting-by-lina-smalinske-9781036955038","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
