  Master the art of double knitting to produce reversible, double-layered, multi-coloured knits. In its simplest form, double knitting is a form of colour work that creates a dual-layered, two-sided fabric, without there being an unattractive or float-ridden 'wrong side'. It is therefore different to any other knitting technique and can mystify novices and experienced knitters alike. Demystifying Double Knitting takes the mystery out of the process with step-by-step explanations of the key techniques, illustrated with detailed photographs. Once the fundamentals are mastered, you can then learn to move beyond basic stocking stitch and introduce texture, shaping and even non-mirrored designs to your work. Whether you're new to the technique or simply want to understand it better, this book offers an accessible introduction to double knitting and a celebration of the creative opportunities it offers.

  Flourishing Chinese Empires -...

  After centuries of division, China experienced an extraordinary renaissance through three dynasties that elevated the empire to unprecedented heights of cultural brilliance and global influence. "Flourishing Chinese Empires: Art, Trade, and Power" examines the Sui, Tang, and Song dynasties—a golden age when China stood as the world's most advanced civilization. 
  The short-lived Sui Dynasty (581-618 CE) accomplished the crucial task of reunification through ambitious projects including the Grand Canal, standardized administration, and reformed examination system. Though bankrupted by these massive undertakings and unsuccessful military campaigns, the Sui created the essential foundation for the glory that followed. 
  The Tang Dynasty (618-907 CE) transformed this unified state into a cosmopolitan empire of unrivaled splendor. China's borders expanded dramatically while its capital at Chang'an became the world's largest and most sophisticated city—a multicultural metropolis where Persian merchants, Japanese monks, and Korean scholars mingled in bustling markets and elegant gardens. This was the era of China's greatest poets, its artistic zenith in sculpture and painting, and unprecedented openness to foreign influences. 
  The Song Dynasty (960-1279 CE) compensated for military vulnerability with stunning economic and technological advancement. Urbanization accelerated as printing spread literacy, commerce flourished through paper money, maritime trade expanded, and scientific innovation thrived. Though constantly threatened by powerful northern neighbors, the Song fostered a refined cultural environment where landscape painting, philosophical inquiry, and scholarly pursuits reached remarkable sophistication.
