Textured Stitches: Knitted Sweaters and Accessories with Smart Details
"Connie Chang Chinchio's designs always stand out in any magazine. They are the designs that allow your eye and mind to take a bit of rest. They are usually swaths of stockinette punctuated by texture for visual interest and shaping. They are the sweaters that I think would look flattering on a variety of shapes and size and would be interesting to knit but not taxing. This is a whole book of that kind of knitting goodness. 11 of the 19 designs in this book are garments which is becoming a rarity in the latest accessory heavy knitting books. The styles are everyday wearable and subtly shaped for excellent fit. They are knit using mostly DK or light worsted yarns giving wonderful drape and a lightness and flow to the details and sweaters. Standouts for me are the Professoressa Cardigan, Anna Maria Cardigan and the Abero Cowl Jacket." - Knitty.com"Popular knitwear designer Connie Chang Chinchio's careful attention to detail shines through in everything she creates, from her much-loved patterns featured inInterweave KnitsandKnitscenemagazines to the timeless fashions in her first book,Textured Stitches." - Crafters Choice Book Club"Connie is ofInterweave KnitsandKnitscenefame, and her book will go down a storm with fans." -Knit Today
