In the Author's Words....
"I have always found colorwork irresistible. Charming vintage knitting patterns with pony-tailed ladies sipping thie apres-ski toddies live in my knitter's heart right next to the memory of my first baby bootie and the day I finally executed a tubular cast-on. Cables cajole me into their braided embrace, lace lures me beneath its weightless impossibility, and knitting of all stripes has at one time or other held my attention, but I always seem to wander back home to colorwork."
(pg 4)
From the publisher.....
"The New Stranded Colorwork is divided into two sections: projects and techniques. The enticing vibrant collection of 20 knitted designs range in difficultly and include accessories, vests, pullovers, and cardigans designed for men, women, and children. Eash design is accompanied by an inspiring quote and basic construction techniques, which are outlined at length in the tutorial section.
The technique section is presented in a friendly, organized fashion in the author's conversational style. Six key methods including stranded colorwork techniques, a guide to reading charts, a steeking how-to, and tips on seams and facings in colorwork knitting are highlighted. Huff also explains the basic tools, yarn, and needles needed to achieve high-end colorwork results."
