Reviews
“Rarely do knitting books contain both gorgeous patterns and authoritative information on technique; this title is a notable exception. The background information about seamless knitting is useful, and the patterns are beautiful.”
~Library Journal
“An outstanding work and it belongs in the library of any knitter interested in seamless construction – or even those who just want some lovely designs without the blocking and seaming. Recommended and this from a knitter who has been buying all of the knitting books focused on seamless knitting and interesting construction. A+.”
~Anastasia McPherson
“The Art of Seamless Knitting is a book I have long waited for. It is glorious! It has a lot of information on seamless knitting along with some very beautiful patterns that I can’t wait to try.”

Above reviews are quoted from Amazon.
“I like this book because it has plenty of detail and tips to meet just about any challenge you can imagine. For example, in the third chapter, which covers lace knitting, they write about combining lace with other knitting techniques, including cables and color knitting. If you are serious about developing your own designs, this book can be a big help.
But if you just want a book with great patterns and good instructions, this is still a great book to invest in. The sweaters are pretty, feminine, original and often challenging enough to remain interesting.”
