Knit Tricks!

These Knit Tricks are revolutionary! Author Rebecca Wat has created inventive methods to transform the simplest knitted shape into elegant ponchos, shrugs, vests, tops, scarves, gloves, and bags. Then simple beading, ribbons, and easy embellishments add the finishing touch. Fun to make and fun to wear, many of these projects are worked in surprising ways: top down, sideways, sleeve first, even border first. And best of all--there's no increasing or decreasing involved. These are rectangles that work all the angles to become something more...something special...something Knit Tricks! * Easy techniques turn knitted rectangles into 25 chic projects * Never increase or decrease stitches again * Patterns work for plus sizes, too!
