Along with color and silhouette, texture and dimension
play a vital role in the interest of a design. The Harmony Guides: Cables and
Arans is a one-stop reference for inspiration, brimming with 250 texture-friendly
designs for knitters of all skill levels.
The Harmony Guides have been a longstanding reference
for handcrafters for more than thirty years, offering clear, concise instructions
and photographs for stitches. Designer Erika Knight, author of the Simple Knits series, lends her expertise in the series redesign, updating the Harmony Guides with new stitches and know-how.
Among hundreds of stitch patterns, Cables and Arans offers an OXO Ripple that makes a dapper design choice for a man's scarf and a
Medallion Ripple that will enhance any basic pullover. Add a little texture to
your home–a Honeycomb Pattern is an excellent choice for a sumptuous and
cozy afghan. All swatches are worked in updated yarns, beautifully photographed
and accompanied by easy-to-follow instructions. Extra design tips are offered
throughout this handy-sized book—the perfect size for any knitter’s
travel tote—making it an excellent resource for both novice and skilled
knitters alike. This all-in-one guide to creating textures and cables is the perfect
knitting companion!
