Neat Side Edges

<p><strong><em>Uneven side edges instantly downgrade any knitting project.</em></strong></p><p>This is especially true for <strong>projects with open edges</strong> like blankets scarves and cardigans.</p><p>I wrote this book to make sure this unpleasant issue <strong>never happens to YOUR knits.</strong></p><p>The book describes <strong>twelve ways to keep the side edges neat and tidy</strong> starting with simple one-stitch selvedges and moving to fancier decorative edgings.</p><p>You will also discover <strong>two ways to fix dropped edge stitches</strong> a simple way to <strong>improve the side edges after the project is finished</strong> and the best way to <strong>make decreases and increases without messing up</strong> the look of the edging.</p><p>Aside from providing all this helpful information I did my best to <strong>make this book easy to read and easy to navigate</strong>. The book has a <strong>clean design</strong> with an <strong>easy-to-see font</strong> placed on a <strong>contrasting background</strong>.</p><p>The <strong>generous white margins</strong> make the layout feel less crowded. They are also useful if you decide to <strong>add notes</strong>.</p><p>If you prefer to keep <strong>quick reminders of each type of edging</strong> in your knitting bag feel free to <strong>cut out Quick Reference Cards</strong> placed at the end of each chapter. They are designed specifically for this purpose.</p><p>There are <strong>lots of close-up photos</strong> throughout the book to help you master each method with <strong>no confusion</strong>. By the time the manuscript was finished it occurred to me that this is a kind of a <strong><em>picture book for knitters</em></strong>. I really like this concept because <strong>it makes learning so much easier</strong>. I hope you will enjoy it as well.</p>
