The Essential Guide to Color Knitting Techniques
by Margaret Radcliffe
Incorporating a little color adds zest, personality, and a unique style to any knitted project. This is the practical and comprehensive reference that opens the world of color to knitters of all abilities, with tips, secrets, and detailed step-by-step illustrations and photographs on how to handle every technique related to using and combining yarn colors.
Adding fabulous color combinations to a handknit item can be as simple as working with multicolor yarn or as intricate as applying the technical concepts of knitting intarsia. Knitting teacher and author Margaret Radcliffe presents a world of color techniques in a single comprehensive reference that knitters will consult every time two or more yarn colors are in play.
 Complete chapters on stripes, stitch effects, knitting with multicolor yarns, stranded knitting, and intarsia cover the general theory and how-to-behind each method as well as creative solutions for handling tangled yarn, estimating yarn quantities of each color, handling all those ends, and stunning finishing techniques. An additional chapter describes less common techniques such as helix, shadow, mosaic, and modular knitting.
Whether the goal is a softly striped throw in nursery pastels, a pair of cozy socks in team colors, or a sophisticated cashmere wrap in a jewel-like pattern, "The Essential Guide to Color Knitting Techniques" has all the answers for adventurous knitters.
