Shackleton A., Shackleton G. Great Knitted Gifts

Sterling/Chapelle, 2005. — 129 с. Вязаные проекты в технике интарсия, которые могут послужить в качестве подарка для близких и друзей. Интарсия - техника цветного вязания, где блоки цветов вяжутся от отдельных клубков или бобин. Протяжки на изнаночной стороне полотна отсутствуют. При каждой смене цветов нити перекручиваются чтобы предотвратить образование отверстий в трикотажном полотне. Two leading knitwear designers, who have created classic pieces for private collections and galleries for more than 20 years, present an eye-catching assortment of intarsia projects, perfect for gift-giving. Handbags and gorgeous garments for adults, plus adorable doll clothes, hats, and sweaters for children-that's what knitters will find inside this remarkable collection of gifts to knit. They're made using intarsia, an easy-to-work two-color technique that's especially popular with a new generation of knitters. Each item features a patte in bold geometrics, stripes, or florals, and all the designs are young and fresh and beautiful enough to qualify as wearable art. Choose a Circles Scarf and Hat with pom-poms, Cherry Blossom Mittens, a Ruffle-Edged Drawstring Bag, Big Squares Knee Socks, a Wee Striped Cardigan, and many more. Every project includes full-color graphs, which make following the design fool-proof.
