The bright idea behind this guide is to build an entire collection around one simple stitch that creates many intriguing effects. Shown in knitting instructions as "k1b" (knit 1 below), the technique involves knitting into the stitch one row below the stitch on the needle with either a knit or a purl stitch. The result is an easy-to-knit fabric with wonderful drape and flexibility that looks equally good on both sides. The color effects possible are also impressive: by alternating two or more colors, weights, or fibers, flattering vertical columns appear on one side of the fabric and a mottled pattern shows on the other. Making the most of this double-sided characteristic, the projects include afghans, scarves, bags, jackets with turned-back lapels, and hats with turned-up brims, all constructed from simple shapes and requiring minimal finishing. Several designs go beyond the basic stitch by adding cables, felting, and intarsia designs.

Beautiful colorwork but tricky to fix errors - 




This is a great book that introduces a new technique (or re-introduces a "lost" technique). On the up side, this isn't a blah knitting book that's full of the same old sweaters, baby blankets and socks you've seen a bazillion times and could get for free on Knitty.com or Ravelry. If you're sick of entrelac, intarsia, and Fair Isle, this book opens up a brave new world of color work.
On the downside, the technique is easy but it's tricky and fiddly to fix errors. I'm an intermediate knitter who has knitted enterlac, Fair Isle, and intarsia. My first time out with K1B, I tried knitting the basic scarf once, twice, three times and then rip-rip-ripping it out. I exhausted my patience and my yarn. I tried again a few days later and, so far, am happily halfway through the scarf.
So, if you're a casual knitter who likes finished work over learning new techniques, this book may not be for you. If you have time, patience and problem-solving skills, this technique may be a great new challenge for you.
Not a slip stitch and easy to learn - 




When this book arrived, I dove in right away. The sweaters and projects inside are all very tempting, the mix of yarns, yarn weights, the end projects are all so beautiful. I'm excited to get started on the projects in the book and using the stitch in my future designs.
If you are a life long knitting student, looking for new and interesting ways to do things, this is the book for you. Well written, well photographed. Do check out the index in the back of the book to under stand what some of the terms mean, you will have an ahhhh moment to two.
Knit One Below: One Stitch, Many Patterns - 




This book is loaded with so many patterns that beg to be knitted. I don't usually buy knitting books because there may be only one or two patterns that I like, so this is a real bargain.
