Reversible Knitting

Reversible Knitting takes a fresh look at reversible stitch patterns for hand knitting where both sides of the fabric look the same. Reversible Knitting includes a stitch dictionary with over 300 stitch patterns and extensive general information about working reversible fabrics. This book builds on Cecelia’s first book, Sequence Knitting which is about making reversible textured fabrics by repeating a fixed sequence of stitches. Every stitch pattern in the book has a chart and row-by-row written instructions. While the dictionary is written for flat knitting, it is easy to use the charts to adapt any of the patterns to working in the round. Reversible Knitting is intended to be a true “handbook” in the sense that it is smaller and lighter and feels good in the hand. By going with a sewn binding, a paperback, and a jacket it will open flat, be easier to carry, and the jacket can do double duty as a book mark. This is a portable book to take with you on a vacation when you want to work on your knitting projects. Some special highlights beyond the usual stitch dictionary include: A collection of reversible selvedges A comprehensive look at one-row patterns How to make a reversible basketweave Incredible, deeply textured slip-stitch patterns An in-depth look at reversible mock cables and true cable
