Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The author of the Up, Down, All-Around Stitch Dictionary returns with 100s of inspiring new stitch patterns in this essential reference volume. Wendy Bernard’s innovative reference book Up, Down, All-Around Stitch Dictionary was the first of its kind to provide stitch patterns written for top-down, bottom-up, back-and-forth, and in-the-round constructions. Since its release in 2014, it has become a beloved, contemporary classic. In The Knitting All Around Stitch Dictionary, Bernard picks up where the first volume left off, adding hundreds of new stitch patterns organized similarly by type—knit and purl, textured stitches, ribs, lace, and cables—plus a chapter on mosaic knitting. Each chapter of The Knitting All Around Stitch Dictionary includes a customizable pattern so that knitters can easily swap out stitch patterns to make their own unique knitted items.
