The book by Ekaterina Trigub is dedicated to the construction of shoulder products in the crosswise crochet technique. The author offers a clear working system that allows transitioning from ready-made descriptions to independently creating stylish and fashionable knitted items. The publication presents a step-by-step algorithm of 10 stages — from preparation and taking measurements to assembling the product and its final processing. The principles of calculations, the peculiarities of constructing the back, front, neckline, and sleeves, options for detailing, as well as working with patterns, yarn, and color are thoroughly analyzed. Special attention is given to the key difficulty of crosswise knitting — the accuracy of calculations. The author explains how to avoid mistakes, correctly determine the knitting density, and adapt the model to individual parameters. The book is accompanied by diagrams, tables, and practical examples. All models are based on a straight silhouette with dropped sleeves, allowing for the creation of modern and comfortable products. The publication will be useful for both those who are just mastering the crosswise technique and experienced knitters striving to expand their capabilities and learn to create their own models.
