Using techniques which are intended to be within the capability of even a complete beginner - the designs are transferred to knitwear using charts and waste canvas - this book contains more than 80 cross-stitch designs. They can be adapted to suit many different styles of knitwear, and are often adaptations of popular traditional motifs from samplers and Berlin wool work, with bolder geometric patterns for men's and children's wear, incorporating beads, tassels, pompons and braids.
