Both a pattern book and a reference book, The Knitter's Handy Book of Sweater Patterns has been created for knitters who want standard sweater patterns in a variety of sizes and gauges, as well as those who want a template from which to develop their own design ideas. This book presents easy-to-follow charted instructions for eighteen sweaters, in the most popular sweater constructions: drop shoulder, modified drop shoulder, set-in sleeve, saddle shoulder, raglan, and seamless yoke. Detailed diagrams for finished dimensions are included, along with a glossary of techniques and a chapter on design considerations.
