Reversible knitting Campochiaro

Reversible Knitting takes a fresh look at reversible stitch patterns for hand knitting. By reversible, we mean both sides of the fabric look the same. Reversible Knitting includes a stitch dictionary with over 300 stitch patterns and extensive general information about working reversible fabrics. It has eight chapters: Chapter 1, Fundamentals, looks at the essential elements of reversible knitting: the structure of reversible fabric and how the stitch patterns that produce it are developed. Chapter 2, Building Blocks, explores the one-row stitch patterns that are the foundation of reversible knitting. Chapter 3, Modifiers, investigates the two most powerful modifications that can be brought to reversible stitch patterns: fine-striping and slip stitches. Chapter 4, Allover Knit–Purl Patterns, expands the building blocks of one-row patterns with broken versions, doublets, damasks, welts, checkerboards, diagonals, and zigzags. Chapter 5, Slip Stitches, examines three categories of slip stitch patterns: wovens, grid patterns, and honeycombs. Chapter 6, Openwork, is all about patterns with holes: meshes, garter lace, lace ribs, and allover lace patterns. Chapter 7, Cables, includes mock cables, open mock cables, and true cables. Chapter 8, Deliberate Distortions, collects patterns that use spaced increases and decreases to create movement in the fabric: chevrons, push-pull patterns, and egg carton patterns.
