Book Reviews of Vogue Knitting on the Go: Scarves (Vogue Knitting on the Go!)
Book Review: Nice little book for your knitting bag....
Summary: 4 Stars
VOGUE SCARVES is a complementary volume to the larger VOGUE basic knitting book. I bought the scarves book because I need inspiration. As I struggle to master basic knitting techniques, I like to think ahead to what might be possible if I persevere. This little book includes some beautiful examples of what might be possible if my fingers ever become un-numb from the work I've been doing.
Some of the Vogue scarf designs depend on fancy stitches, some on appliques, some on more than one color, some on a mix of the above. Many of the scarves include basic stitches I am already beginning to master. A good example of a relatively simple design is the `Chevron' scarf, which involves the garter stitch, knitting on a biased pattern by increasing stitches at each row, and using more than one color.
Seems as though knitting like advanced math involves calculations built up from addition and subtraction (`advanced' knitting techniques reduce to knitting and purling--apparently the reverse of each other). The most important ingredient in becoming a proficient advanced knitter is to master the basics. This book is for those capable of persevering who are ready to tackle more knitting and purling.
