intro to color knitting, stitches, patterns and extra. Ends with alpha index and stitch and row counts.
There are charted squares of two color knitting available. Stitches are discussed along with needle size, gauge and notions needed. How to assemble the item made has notes also.
There are charts and also color and needle symbols. Not for a very beginner, in my opinion as there are some things that are left out of this sample portion.
Love maple tree leaf the best but also love daisies.
Each patterns starts with a title, finished sizes, supplies and what the model was used to make.
Ends with about the author and more motifs in various colors.
Will be an excellent resource reference book to have for your library.
