Knitting Short Rows

Knitting Short Rows
Shape your knitwear seamlessly using short row techniques, including wrap & turn, yarnover, German and Japanese methods, and twin stitch shadow wraps.

The beauty, ease and charm of knitwear comes in large part from its organic nature, from the curve of a sweater around the body, the depth and texture of a warm scarf, or the perfect slouch of a hat. I love designing knits that shape the fabric or create interesting detail using various knitting techniques. One of my favorite techniques of all is short rows.
Short rows are an invaluable technique that allow the knitter to create curves, angles and depth, resulting in modern, seamless knitwear that is both engaging to knit and flattering to wear.
Knitting Short Rows is both a technical learning resource with tutorials, and a beautiful design source that embodies modern, seamless knitting with 17 designs including garments, accessories and wraps.

Originally published by Interweave, Knitting Short Rows was later available from Penguin Random House. Unfortunately, in these perilous publishers’ times, Knitting Short Rows is now out of print.
The designer is in the process of republishing the Knitting Short Rows patterns as indie designs, with updated sizing and details.

In the interim, the original Knitting Short Rows book may be found at local libraries and used book stores.
