The French have always been noted for their expertise in hand-knitting. The Elle Knitting Book makes 50 stunning designs from top French knitwear designers available for the first time. They have the elusive, inimitable style and timeless elegance of French fashion but are nevertheless surprisingly easy to make at home. The patterns, which include year-round garments of all types for men and children as well as women, are graded according to the degree of skill needed to complete them. There are designs for all types of knitter from the absolute beginner to the highly experienced in search of something more challenging.
Where necessary there are clearly laid out charts for colour and stitch
patterns as well as detailed measurement diagrams of the main pattern pieces.
In addition to the patterns there is a complete back-up section providing information on hand-knitting materials and equipment, help on reading the patterns and a refresher course on basic stitches and tension measurement, as well as valuable chapters on making up the designs successfully and choosing suitable yarns from the huge variety currently available to the knitter. To get even more mileage out of the patterns there is also a section on altering and adapting them to individual tastes and requirements and another on aftercare, recycling and renovating knitted garments.
This English edition hardback book from 1984 is in good condition. The 126 pages are clean and unmarked. The dustcover has tears to the spine and rubbing along the top edge.
