Martina Umemura's second knitting book

A new way to enjoy Opal yarn created by Martina

"Opal" is a German-made yarn that continues to attract many knitting enthusiasts.

It is a sock yarn that is attractive for its colorfulness, with many colors appearing in a single yarn in succession.

Without any special patterning, just knitting normally,
the way that gorgeous patterns magically appear continues to attract many knitting enthusiasts.

This is the second knitting book by Martina Umemura, who made this yarn popular in Japan.

Using the color changes of the step-dyed yarn as a guide, the author introduces how to knit a piece while knitting her original three-dimensional decorations (32 types) called "reliefs".

The author, who knows Opal inside and out, has a novel idea that will surprise you with how you can enjoy it like this.

The method of knitting the reliefs is carefully explained with photos and is easy to understand.

It also includes knitting techniques from the author's home country of Germany, where knitting traditions are deeply rooted.
It's worth a read just for the logical knitting techniques that aren't introduced in Japanese knitting books.
