Knitted in one piece Perfectly fitting models for jackets and sweaters - Hubert, Margaret

For most knitting enthusiasts, the least favorite step in knitting a sweater is sewing the pieces together. Author Margaret Hubert offers a solution with her knitting patterns!

The book shows how to knit classic sweaters and cardigans using three methods with almost no seams:

• From top to bottom : Start at the neckline for raglan models and models with yoke

• From the side : from one sleeve seam to the other

• From back to front : from the back to the front hem; for the sleeves, stitches are picked up at the shoulders

Knitting instructions for four different basic models make converting and making different sizes a breeze. The size charts range from toddler sizes to large adult sizes.

And because everyone likes to use different wools for their hand-knitted sweaters, different wool qualities and yarn weights are also taken into account in the knitting patterns. For each basic model and all sizes, there are knitting patterns for various yarn weights, from thin to thick.

The three variations presented for each basic model offer even more creative possibilities, playing with patterns, colors, and details like the neckline or sleeves. Helpful tips on various basic knitting techniques are provided, especially for less experienced knitters.

In short:

• Sweater knitting in one piece: from the top, side or back to front

• There are 3 variations for each knitting pattern: Play with patterns, colors and details

• Detailed explanations of fit changes and customizations; easy to do even for beginners

• Explanations for implementation with different wool qualities and yarn thicknesses
