Here's a knitting book with a difference. It shows and tells how to leave patterns aside and make beautiful clothing and accessories from simple geometric shapes. Following the modular--or no-pattern--method, knitters can forget about complicated increases and decreases, and they won't have to labor over an intricate pattern book. Instead, they learn how to create sweaters Here's a knitting book with a difference.

My copy is not a hardcover version and it is simply called "Modular Knitting" - it is paperback type and is printed by Search Press. I however cannot really be bothered to put this on the database so am using this one which is by and large the same book. Certainly the cover is the same. Its an okay book but I think I am better placed to following patterns rather than being left to my own devices. Its good however for learning about shaping without a pattern so all is not lost I guess.

The concept for this knitting book was interesting, and I thought they did a fairly good job of explaining their method. They spent a lot of pages on the different shapes you could knit. I would have liked more examples of things they had knitted without a pattern. The pictures of the items they did have were okay, but nothing that caught my eye. I might recommend. *Taken from my book reviews blog: http://reviewsatmse.blogspot.com/2010...

Okay, I will admit I didn't really read it cover-to-cover. But it appears, after my reading of the firs few pages, reviewing the patterns, etc., to be an okay to good source for thinking about modular knits. Unfortunately, I think I was turned off by amount of sewing (duh), finishing never being one of my strong points. Okay, I will admit I didn't really read it cover-to-cover.

an interesting premise with very detailed instructions on how to make many many different shapes. The few patterns it did have weren't particularly good looking. This would appeal to my math friends. an interesting premise with very detailed instructions on how to make many many different shapes. The few patterns it did have weren't particularly good looking.

I found the knitting of geometric shapes fascinating, but I find the garments created from the shapes not very aesthetic. But I'd like to get this from the library again to practice making cool shapes. ;) I found the knitting of geometric shapes fascinating, but I find the garments created from the shapes not very aesthetic.

An expanded version of the ideas covered in Woolly Thoughts with full color picture how-tos for creating shapes to make designs. One of my absolute favorites amongst my knitting books.
