Urban Knit Collection - Revised 2nd EditionPublished by David & Charles
This collection includes 18 knitting patterns for garments and accessories, each inspired by the architecture and rhythm of city life. The designs blend strong graphic elements with clean silhouettes, offering knitters a chance to explore bold colorwork and engaging construction techniques. This revised second edition features the complete set of original patterns—with corrected errata—and an expanded section on locked floats, the technique I use to manage long strands in stranded colorwork. If you missed it the first time, or you're ready to revisit the collection with fresh eyes, you can order a signed copy through my Etsy shop. Details:

The front of our project bag features a photo of a QR code that was knit using the locked floats technique. Scan the code using your phone or tablet and you'll be led to Kyle's video playlist demonstrating the technique for both the knit and purl side of stockinette fabric. Flip the bag over and you'll see the textured, woven look that the technique creates on the back side of the fabric. Inside the bag you'll find the perfect yarn and needle for class. The yarn is pre-wound and ready for you to cast on! About the Bag
