The knitter's palette : a workbook of color and texture techniques and effects
Haxell, Kate2013
Book
Nine chapters of knitting containing 60 palettes, each with a group of knitted swatches that explore variations on an effect, a pattern, a technique, a texture, or an idea. The result is a structured, easy-to-use reference library of 400 swatches that you can plunder at your pleasure. There is plenty of technical back-up with over 80 illustrated techniques that support the palettes and will help you achieve whatever you admire. This combination of technique and inspiration makes for a work book that will be a go-to guide whether you're knitting a garter stitch stripy scarf, or a wonderfully patterned, embellished, and textured sweater.
