Shadow Knitting
By Vivian Hoxbro
|
The mysteries of shadow knitting-a simple technique of alternating rows of dark
and light yarn to produce a subtle patterning that appears and disappears
depending on the angle from which it is viewed-are explored and refined here
by a professional knitwear designer. The basic principles and techniques of
shadow knitting are introduced through clear, well-illustrated instructions
and are followed by spectacular projects that include winged shawls,
squared bags, a matching cap and scarf, vests, sweaters, and
Japanese-style kimonos. Each project is accompanied by
step-by-step instructions and beautiful photographs.
