Reversible Knitting includes a stitch dictionary with over 300 stitch patterns and extensive general information about working reversible fabrics. This book builds on Cecelia’s first book, Sequence Knitting which is about making reversible textured fabrics by repeating a fixed sequence of stitches.

Every stitch pattern in the book has a chart and row-by-row written instructions. While the dictionary is written for flat knitting, it is easy to use the charts to adapt any of the patterns to working in the round.

Reversible Knitting is intended to be a true “handbook” in the sense that it is smaller and lighter and feels good in the hand. By going with a sewn binding, a paperback, and a jacket it will open flat, be easier to carry, and the jacket can do double duty as a book mark. This is a portable book to take with you on a vacation when you want to work on your knitting projects.

Some special highlights beyond the usual stitch dictionary include:

  • A collection of reversible selvedges
  • A comprehensive look at one-row patterns
  • How to make a reversible basketweave
  • Incredible, deeply textured slip-stitch patterns
  • An in-depth look at reversible mock cables and true cable

Cecelia has been designing patterns using this idea for some time. You can find her patterns on Ravelry.

Portrait

Cecelia Campochiaro appeared on the knitting scene in 2015 with her debut book, “Sequence Knitting”. Knitting was a casual pastime until she had an ah-ha moment in 2010 and realized that interesting textured fabrics could be created by the simple repetition of a sequence of stitches. This idea evolved and led to her writing “Sequence Knitting”, which is a reference book about this mindful approach to knitting.

In the years since “Sequence Knitting” debuted, she has continued to develop new ideas in knitting. “Sequence Knitting” is about texture, and her new book, “Making Marls”, is about color. Making marls, the act of working multiple strands together as one, is an old technique, but has rarely been written about as an important technique in handknitting.

She lives in Silicon Valley, where for many years she developed specialized microscopes used in computer chip manufacturing. Textiles, photography and the arts have been a lifelong passion running in parallel with her technical life. In high school and college even though her main studies were in the sciences, she studied drawing, printmaking, ceramics, and photography. Today she is fully dedicated to the fiber world and “unventing” new ways to make amazing knit fabrics.
