Knitted Jackets
20 Designs from Classic to Contemporary
by Cheryl Oberle
|
These 20 patterns by Cheryl Oberle (a regular contributor to Interweave Knits,
and the author of Folk Shawls and Folk Vests), range in difficulty from beginner
to advanced. The author takes knitters on a world tour of coats, jackets, and wraps.
Inspired by open-front garments and textiles from around the globe, including Austria,
England, Japan, Peru, and Norway. These figure-flattering designs bring a contemporary
edge to a variety of knitting traditions. Step-by-step instructions and copious photographs
illustrate how to use standard stockinette, garter, and cable stitches. More advanced
techniques for fanciful lace and colorwork and the history behind beach pattern is also included.
