Critics Review
“This is a translation of the legendary Japanese stitch dictionary originally published in 1992. There are 700 knit stitches and 300 crochet stitches. Japanese stitch patterns are distinct and original, and even the easiest stitches will elevate your knitting. Go on—make everything you knit just a little bit more beautiful.” —Jillian Moreno, Modern Daily Knitting Blog“For knitters and crocheters looking to expand their repertoire, this book is a goldmine of inspiration and technique. With hundreds of original stitch patterns and motifs, it offers everything from timeless lacy and cable designs to intricate Fair Isle, Nordic, and ethnic-inspired patterns […] Each stitch is presented with clear diagrams to help readers visualize the construction and understand how individual stitches contribute to the overall pattern. […] Whether a seasoned stitcher or an ambitious beginner, this resource encourages experimentation, creativity, and mastery of stitchwork.” —Interweave “3 Can’t Miss Japanese Stitch Dictionaries”
