Produktbeschreibung
In the world of textiles, knitted fabric is one of the most complicated materials to work with but also one of the most used. This is a book for all fashion lovers who, while fascinated by knitted fabric, have not dared to venture into this field, as well as for advanced and professional knitters who want to systematically round off their knowledge. It includes all the steps necessary to create a knitted garment, from the choice of yarn to manufacturing apparel, explaining such things as how to use a flatbed knitting machine correctly and the linking, cutting, sewing and, ultimately, ironing of knitted garments. The book not only takes into account how crucial it is to recognize and develop a stitch. It also acknowledges the importance of knowing how to represent stitches for different machines in a useful way. For the first time, the author describes the various stitches in a clear and well-structured manner with a language of symbols developed for use with all kinds of studio and domestic knitting machines regardless of the brand: Brother, Silver Reed, Passap, Coppo and Dubied. The book includes examples of working with traditional materials like wool, alpaca, cotton and linen but also encourages experimenting with paper, plastic materials and vegetal and metallic yarns to create texture, three-dimensional effects and unusual volumes.

Lucia Consiglia Tarantino was born in Taranto (Italy) in 1966, where she grew up among her mother¿s and grandmother¿s knitting machines, which instilled in her a passion for knitting and sewing. After completing her studies in business consultancy and accounting, she decided to open her own workshop designing tailor-made garment sample collections. She soon began collaborating with the Mauro della Valle Design studio, where she had the opportunity to develop knitting projects and carry out trend studies for renowned clothing and fashion brands and famous fashion fairs such as Pitti Immagine and Premier vision. After three years of teaching at the lED in Milan (European Institute of Design, Milan, Italy), she began teaching courses in the Master¿s program at the School of Design of the Milan Polytechnic (Milan, Italy), a position she holds to this day. From 2008 to 2011 she taught at FlT (Fashion Institute of New York, USA) "Introduction to Weft Knitting Principles" on professional Coppo and Dubied linear knitting machines. Since 2017 she has been a lecturer at the School of Design of the Milan Polytechnic University¿s 5 ¿Fashion Design¿ and ¿Knit Design¿ technical training courses.
