Description

A Knitter's Guide to Shawl Design by Emma Vining is a comprehensive guide for knitters looking to create original shawl designs. With inspiration drawn from various themes and ideas, this book encourages readers to personalize their knitting and explore new design possibilities. Beautifully illustrated with photographs, sketches, and explanatory diagrams, the book delves into traditional and innovative approaches to shawl design. It examines the effects of yarn, knitting techniques, and finishing choices on the final design, as well as the importance of edges and borders in framing a project. The guide covers various shawl shapes, including squares, rectangles, triangles, circles, semi-circles, and crescents, with individual chapters dedicated to each. Five detailed case studies illustrate the design process, culminating in full shawl patterns for readers to try.
