About this Collection of 260 Knitting
Stitch Patterns
More than ten years have passed since my first collection of knitting stitches,
Couture Knitting Patterns 250, was published in 2005. Since 2009 I have also
created spring/summer issues for my series of Couture Knits, which now totals 17
volumes. This second volume of stitch patterns gave me a welcome opportunity.
In this collection, I have added scallop patterns and a number of round yokes
and edgings. Every pattern I looked at brought up memories, and I found it hard
to decide which ones to include here.
If you use the patterns collected here to create knitted items, I’d be pleased
to receive any hints you have.
In considering a knitting pattern, I carefully scrutinize one pattern stitch at a
time. I divide it into its parts and try to reconstruct it. While I’m knitting, I’ll
quickly change the original pattern to see where it takes me. I can’t stop trying
new techniques. There are times when it goes smoothly, but more often I end up
heaving a sigh of disappointment. However, I know that this process is very
important to me and I want to continue feeling the urge to experiment. On this
road that I’ve followed I’ve had a lot of support. I’m grateful and happy to be
able to continue to knit. From now on, step by step, I’ll keep on developing my
work.
Finally, I am grateful from the bottom of my heart to all of you for your
participation and use of this collection of knitting patterns.
