Reviews
"This is mindful, challenging knitting at its best, and this translation opens up a world of Japanese knitting charts to English speakers." -- "Starred Review" Library Journal, Gayle Roehm's translation of noted designer Hitomi Shida's second stitch dictionary represents a sea change in the English-speaking world, because now we have a few words to help us through the standardized Japanese symbol system...think of it as opening a window into the way another culture designs and knits. And Shida's stitches? Like calligraphy: fluid, beautiful and complex. -- Vogue Knitting, Profusely and beautifully illustrated throughout, thoroughly 'user friendly' in organization and presentation, Japanese Knitting Stitch Bible is a unique and highly recommended addition to personal, professional, and community library knitting instructional guide collections. -- Midwest Book Review|9784805314531|, "...experienced knitters will be tempted to give it a go after paging through the handsomely photographed knit swatches, each of which is accompanied by unlabeled charts. For those who want to jump right in, there are a few patterns for socks and a hat. A black-and-white photo section that shows how to knit the stitches concludes. A feast for the eyes, and perhaps the hands." -- Booklist, You will be stunned by the complexity and beauty of these unique motifs -- and the intensity does not diminish as you page through the book.

It's a worthy addition to your library and something for you to consider. I'm glad to have it at my reach! And of course, it's another way for me to lose countless hours thumbing through and daydreaming." -- Knotions.com, "Gayle Roehm's translation of noted designer Hitomi Shida's second stitch dictionary represents a sea change in the English-speaking world, because now we have a few words to help us through the standardized Japanese symbol system...think of it as opening a window into the way another culture designs and knits.
