Save yourself some purl rows and knit your wraps in the round! When working most traditional shawl patterns in rows, you work a “pattern” row, and then turn and purl the wrong side. But by knitting your shawls and scarves in the round, you are always knitting on the right side, so it is easy to work beautiful stranded, lace, texture, and even brioche patterns. Plus, it's so fast to keep knitting with no turning! Once you’ve finished knitting your shawl, you then cut through the extra stitches included in each pattern (known as steek stitches). Hem with simple hand or machine sewing, and your wrap is ready to wear! Author Andrea Brauneis explains the process in detail, and the extra stitches and instructions are included in each pattern, making it easy to work these 21 gorgeous scarf and wrap patterns even if it’s your first time trying this technique. And once you try it, you’ll want to knit all your wraps around and around!

Transform your knitting with 17 stunning colorwork patterns that celebrate vibrant designs from top to bottom, perfect for everyday elegance! Instead of restricting stranded knitting to only the yoke of a sweater, the 17 patterns in this collection embrace colorwork from top to bottom. Modern and traditional motifs are used in new ways to create an array of styles and shapes, from cardigans, hoodies, and short sleeve sweaters to cozy pullovers, ponchos, and even a dress. A variety of colorful yarns are used to varying effects: mohair for soft halos, merino wool for stitch definition, and alpaca for lightweight warmth. The sweaters are unique and sure to be noticed, yet are comfortable and appropriate for everyday wear. Patterns are sized from small to extra large and are appropriate for intermediate knitters comfortable with sweater-making techniques and colorwork. An illustrated tutorial section provides a refresher on stranded knitting, if needed, as well as instructions on how to work a few possibly unfamiliar stitches and techniques. Knitters will be absorbed from start to finish as they add many new favorite sweaters to their collection!
