Japanese Knitting Stitch Bible: A Review
Today, in the Knitting and Damage column, we will look at the Japanese Knitting Bible: 260 excellent Hitomi Shida patterns . I declare that the title of this book does not exaggerate its content. This book is an excellent resource for knitters. Contains 260 different knitting patterns that are completely pornographic for knitting lovers. Dozens of photos follow dozens of photos with beautiful, intricate, creative and delicate embroidery patterns that make me gasp in astonishment, sigh with joy and breathe in the air to the point that I was delighted when I saw the book. Human. I do not have the opportunity to show the inside of this book, but I suggest you take a look at the knitting pattern in the cover photo and imagine the knitting pattern in that layer multiplied by 260. And all those knitting patterns come from i same brain, hell. Hitomi Shida is a very talented stylist and probably has the same genius in embroidery as Kaffe Fassett in color.
I should probably warn you that if you are familiar with the standard western pattern knitting instructions, you may find the instructions in this book a bit unusual. Japanese knitting designers use a more graphic design style that has only recently begun to be used in North American knitting publications, where the knitting pattern is intended to be a visual representation of what the finished knitting will look like rather than a more linear model. common in the English model, where each plot block represents a corresponding point in the model. Also, there is usually no lock because every published Japanese knitting pattern uses the same standard symbols and knitters are expected to know what these symbols are. Because the English knitting for which this book has been translated may not necessarily recognize the symbols, explanations are given throughout the book, so it should not be too difficult for a knitter who is new to these patterns to start . and learn to use a slightly different style of knitting, and it will surely be in vain.
There are only five current project patterns in the Japanese Knitting Bible , so let’s get into the details. Everything is simple in shape as Hitomi Shida's focus as a designer seems to be almost entirely correct. Taking a look at her Ravelry portfolio, you will find hundreds of project design templates in portable and handy shapes with beautiful and elegant stitching.
