I just picked up the book, "400 Knitting Stitches", by Potter Craft. It was one of the gifts I gave to myself using a Michael's gift card I got for Christmas.
I've been looking for a stitch dictionary for awhile. They help greatly when you find yourself stuck in pattern design. And just like yarn, you can never own too many.
I love the detailed images of the stitches in this book. On many of the patterns they even show how it looks from the back, giving another dimension to pattern design.
I'm not very fond of the charts used. They are a bit too small for my taste, but I'm able to manage.
I do hope in the new year that I will be able to add a few more of these books to my collection. Already, I have two designs on the needles based on thee stitches found in this book.
