Flip Knit - The Knit Stitch

ModeKnit Press

No one expects to be told they have Multiple Myeloma at age 48, especially not the month they have moved their family half way across the country from New Jersey to St. Paul. As Gerry Landy's back pain worsened, the phrase Multiple Myeloma crept into his family's consciousness, threading through every part of their new Minnesota existence. Drawing heavily on his wife, Annie Modesitt's, knitting blog, this memoir of a one family's year draws the separate strands of their struggles, victories, and small joys together into a compelling and encouraging narrative. We can t choose the disease, but we CAN choose hope.

In knitting, decreases can slant to the left, to the right, or stand straight and tall as a vertical decrease. This handy little pocket flip book will allow you to see how a left and a right slanting decrease is worked, and how you can mistress them (no matter WHAT method of knitting you favor!) Techniques are shown in a series of still photographs which, when flipped quickly, give the illusion of a short instructional 'film'. Turn the book over and flip again for the companion technique!

Flip Knit - Directional Decreasing

A new increase? Are you MAD woman? By inserting the needle into the stitch directly below the next st on the needle and knitting it, then knitting the stitch above it, you can make a different type of knitting increase which doesn't leave a tell-tale purl bump. Confused? Don't be. The techniques for a knit and purl increase are shown in a series of still photographs which, when flipped quickly, give the illusion of a short instructional 'film'. Turn the book over and flip again for the companion technique!
