If you think garter stitch is boring, with rows and rows of just one knit stitch after another, this new book from Rita Weiss is about to change your mind. Her collection of 50 fabulous knit garter stitches shows that garter stitch has many dimensions and many disguises. It can be used to make lace, ripples, mosaic designs, ribbings, and more. In fact, without using a purl stitch, garter stitch can even be made to look just like stockinette. All of the interesting stitches in this book are created by using only a knit stitch, yet they are fun to make and will add a new dimension to your knitting. You may find it hard to believe, but not one of these stitches uses a purl! 50 Fabulous Knit Garter Stitches (Leisure Arts #4926)

An ardent collector of knit patterns, Rita Weiss was always fascinated with the beautiful Aran sweaters that supposedly came from the Aran Islands off the coast of Ireland. She loved the stories that accompanied them and the idea that each stitch had a special meaning. Even though historians now are saying the stories were all a myth used as a marketing tool, Rita never stopped loving the patterns. She shares 50 favorites here. Each can be worked in any yarn you choose, either in multiples (the number of stitches needed to complete one unit of the pattern) or in panels with a specific stitch count. Patterns include Cathedral Cables, Rapunzel's Cable, Tied Ropes, Desert Sand, Blarney Kiss, Quilted Cables, Diamond Windows, and more. 50 Fabulous Knit Aran Stitches (Leisure Arts #4530)
