Description

Create gorgeous afghans and more with 200 knitted block patterns to mix and match. From geometric designs to multi-hued blocks, discover new ways to play with colour, pattern and texture. Choose from easy to advanced knitting patterns, including simple knit and purl designs and more elaborate cable, lace and bobble blocks. Use blocks in one of the suggested layouts, or design your own - all blocks finish to the same size when worked in the same yarn weight. Learn how to finish your blocks in style with patterns for fringes, ruffles and other decorative edgings. This book provides everything you need to create unique afghans, wall hangings and accessories, with step-by-step instructions and inspiration for planning your design and creating a finished piece. Each block is labelled with at-a-glance symbols that tell you instantly what techniques are used to create the block and the level of difficulty, making it easy for both experienced and new knitters to pick and choose blocks according to their confidence.
