The patterns also include a variety of color, stitch, and surface variations that knitters can master to make unique creations, such as Fair Isle, Intarsia, Twining, and Drop Stitch. Accompanied by full-color step-by-step photographs, the pattern themes include Moulin Rouge, Celtic Moors, Provincial Garden, Lil' Bambinos, Bollicina, and Erin Isles and include sizing options for kids and adults.
