Design and Projects in Knitting and Crochet

For those ready to break away from the pattern books and create wearable pieces of fiber art, freeform is an exciting discovery. It’s a technique that abandons strict garment design and builds up simple shapes out of gorgeous textured yarns—with the knitter sometimes making it up as she goes along. Start with the step-by-step clinics on how to create fragments and motifs like chevrons, flowers, and spirals. Then take inspiration from the color photographs and combine luscious yarns in intricate patchworks. The result? Something amazingly unique. There’s guidance on creating fabulously fashionable capes, stylish shoulder bags, intriguing scarves and hats, avant-garde jewelry, and even handy cell phone holders.

CONDITION STATEMENT: These are vintage pre-owned books. Some have rarely been opened, while others may have been well-used and show their age. Previous book owners may have written in / on their books, stickers may have been removed from the covers, pages may have yellowed, some pages may be dog-eared or creased. There might be small tears on pages or covers due to shipping and may have clear tape over tears to prevent further damage. Depending on how they were used or stored by previous owners, there could be slight odor. I will ensure that all patterns and pages are present and attached.
