95 Basic Techniques

36 items created through repetition and connection of motifs
─ Light crochet wear suitable for spring and summer
Everyday items you use at home, fashion items you want to show off when you go out.

A basic motif that everyone has tried at least once when starting knitting.
However, by simply repeating this simple-looking motif, you can create a variety of patterns and shapes.
This pattern book, which carefully introduces motif knitting works by various artists, covers everything from classic home decor items like coasters and doilies that come to mind first when you think of motifs, to practical everyday items like card cases, pouches, table mats, and cushion covers that can be easily made, to trendy fashion items like babushkas, daisy-shaped net bags, bucket hats, bucket bags, short-sleeved cardigans, thin pullovers, and camisoles.


These pieces, knitted using Hamanakasa's spring/summer yarn, stand out with their refreshing colors that suit the season, and the clothing and hats are made primarily of easy-to-wash washed cotton or washable linen yarn, and fluffy, light kapok cotton yarn, enhancing their practicality.
Bags with a rattan or metallic yarn feel made with flat eco-andaria yarn, and bags with accents made with floating frames and handles are also eye-catching.

It is interesting that even the same motif can give a completely different impression depending on the color or length, and that even the same type of motif can be completed as a work with a completely different purpose if the length and method of connection are changed.
Fall in love with the charm of the crochet motif that makes you want to knit again and again.

Knitting motifs to enjoy the rhythm of repetitive hand knitting
Infinite variations are possible with color changes, size changes, and motif combinations.

The advantage of motif knitting is that you only have to repeat the same pattern.
Even with the same motif, it can be made colorful with various colors, large and small motifs of different shapes can be combined, and techniques or stitches other than motif knitting can be used for details, but the core of this book is motif knitting.
As you knit several sheets in the same way, the pattern will become familiar and you will be able to enjoy knitting rhythmically without having to look at the pattern every time.


Of course, you can add your own touch to make it different.
First of all, the easiest thing to do is to combine colors according to your taste.
Additionally, the dimensions of the finished product can be easily adjusted by adding or omitting motifs.
By simply adding or subtracting one motif, the garment can be made to vary between cap sleeves and short sleeves, cropped length and regular length, and depending on the number and arrangement of motifs, it can become a rectangular tissue case cover or a square cushion cover.
Of course, you can combine the various works introduced in this book to create your own design.
For example, it is possible to make a cushion cover using the motif introduced for the table mat, or knit a bag using the motif used for the camisole.
You can get 200% out of this book by adding your own ideas.
