Vivian takes modular knitting to a new level by adding felting and geometric openwork patterns to modular squares. All of the projects begin with an individual square, small or large. Additional squares are then worked on top of and adjacent to the first square to form larger blocks that become the foundations for each project. Begin with a primer on how to knit the basic square, how to join them into a block, how to weave in tails as you knit, and then jump right into these creative, colorful, eye-catching projects. Project chapters are based on the amount of blocks needed to complete a pattern, including incomplete squares that produce L-shaped motifs. Fans of small-project knitting will love these hats, bags, scarves, pillows, slippers, capelets and more composed of small squares that use up the knitter's stash. 16 patterns—144 pages  | Softcover Retail: $24.95 Item No. 31152
