Interweave Knits的Spring 2019目录

Dear Reader, The Impressionist art movement took place at a time of political change and unrest. It was mid-nineteenth-century France, a war was in progress, and the Académie des Beaux-Arts was adhering to the standard of religious themes, portraits, and historical subjects. That is, until a handful of art students shook up everything by painting still lifes, landscapes, and everyday objects in a totally new, looser style. This new approach caused all sorts of strong reactions, both positive and negative, and eventually became one of the most significant art movements to date. That’s generally the way art goes, no? Things are done the same way for a long time, shifting slowly as people learn from the great masters while trying to develop their own style, and then, unexpectedly, something comes…

The variegated merino-nylon yarn does most of the visual work in the top-down, seamless Cattleya Pullover, giving different knitters diverse color-pooled results.

The primary purpose of increases in knitting is to shape the fabric by adding new stitches, but there is also a cosmetic element to consider. As with most other knitting techniques, there are several different increase methods to choose from, and each method has certain characteristics that distinguish it from the others. So how does one go about deciding which increase to use in a particular situation? The best way is to become familiar with several methods so that if one isn’t working, another one can be used instead. In this article, we’ll take a close look at some common (and not so common) increase methods to see exactly what gives each increase its particular appearance. The steps to create each increase are included, but our focus will be on…
