A great stitch manual with 300 patterns divided into four sections: knit and purl stitches; cable stitches; lace and bobble stitches; and twist and other stitches. Each pattern has a good photograph and chart with full instructions on how to use them in the introduction, so although it looks complicated it is actually straightforward and a good new skill to have. It is really good but my only issue would be that there is no indication how you would work out the width of a worked piece. Also, each pattern is numbered and I would like to know if any of the patterns have names, they are so evocative and have such a lovely history.
