The Knitter's Handy Book of Sweater Patterns

Knitting one-of-a-kind sweaters just got easier. Choose a style, a size, and a gauge and you're on your way. The six most popular sweater constructions (drop shoulder, modified drop shoulder, set-in sleeve, saddle shoulder, raglan, and seamless yoke) are presented with easy-to-follow charted instructions. Each style comes in fifteen size (from 26" to 54" chest circumference) and in five gauges. If you're counting, that's 450 patterns. And if you add the cardigan and neckline variations, edgings, waist shapings, and color and stitch patterns, you've got more than 1,500 design options! Detailed instructions for eighteen sweaters are included along with an illustrated glossary of techniques. If knitting sweaters is your passion, this is your definitive resource.
