In this collection of patterns, designer Dassau explores four different methods for knitting short rows: the commonly used wrap & turn and yarnover methods, and the lesser-known German and Japanese techniques. For each, she discusses the type of knitted fabric best suited to the technique, and clearly describes the process of ending the row and closing the gap created by the short row. Each section features several pattern options, including sweaters, shawls, hats, and mitts, that showcase short-row shaping and allow knitters to master the techniques. VERDICT Short rows can be daunting, but they elevate knitwear from boxy and shapeless to stylish and well fitting. The thorough explanation of short-row techniques combined with patterns using short rows makes this a useful addition to knitters' bookshelves.
