Publisher's Synopsis
Knit a trendy garment or accessory or some coziness for the home (and learn a new technique in the process!) with The Beginner's Guide to Mosaic Knitting! Mosaic knitting is a fun technique that uses simple slipped stitches to create beautiful, intricate-looking multicolour fabric. Slipping stitches elongates them, drawing them up lengthwise into subsequent rows and, when stripes are involved, gives the appearance of bringing a second colour into a row of knitting that's worked with only one yarn. Instructor and yarn guru Melissa Leapman will guide readers lovingly through this new technique, enabling them to create complex-looking fabrics using only one colour per row. With her detailed tips and instruction, readers be a master mosaic knitter in no time. Projects include headband, hat, cowl, pullover, sampler throw, baby blanket and more! There are a total of eight glorious projects inside, and all are rated Easy, so readers can knit them up quickly.
