My favorite designs are (1) "Shoulder Chic", a beaded, scoop neck, cutoff tee that uses pleats to pull the center front and center back upwards into graceful curves; (2) "Vested Interest", a little vest that uses pleats for a raised rib effect all over the back, and for shaping that pulls in the sides of the vest for a snug, flattering fit; (3) "Borderlines", an elegant, mostly sideways-knit jacket with vertical pleats at the center fronts, and horizontal pleats at the cuffs; and (4) "Long Way Back", a stylish pullover with elongated back and horizontal pleats at the lower edge, cuffs, and collar.There are clear technical instructions, with drawings, for knitting full-row, partial-row, and puffy pleats. For a pleat (often called a tuck), you pick up stitches from a previously knit row on a spare needle, and then knit together the stitches on the spare needle and the stitches on your working needle. If you can do a three-needle bind-off, you can do these pleats!Partial-row pleats are great for shaping garments, as an alternative to knitting short rows. Puffy pleats make the pleats really stand out, because the stitches in the rows between the knitted-together rows are doubled with increases, and then decreased back for the final knitted-together row.Because both the technique and the patterns are so simple, I rate this book at 4 stars ("I like it"). It's a book that is nice to have, and that should be a welcome gift for any serious knitter, knitting book collector, or knitter who loves one or more of the patterns. If what you are interested in is just knowing how to knit these pleats, the technique is also explained (under "pull-up stitch") in my favorite general knitting reference book,  Knitter's Handbook : A Comprehensive Guide to the Principles and Techniques of Handknitting . ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The directions seem clear and easy to follow *by P***N on Reviewed in the United States on January 24, 2017* I am excited to get started on this technique. I can already see the design potential. The directions seem clear and easy to follow. I would recommend this to anyone looking to add this technique to their knitting skills. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great ideas *by W***6 on Reviewed in the United States on November 24, 2012* I like this book, but it definitely has a market. It is useful to me because I can adapt to my own patterns. I might try one of the patterns for myself, but it's not an everyday knitting book. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/1722817-knitting-pleats-stunning-garments-and-accessories-paperback-september-13-2011](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/1722817-knitting-pleats-stunning-garments-and-accessories-paperback-september-13-2011) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-09-06*
