Publisher Synopsis
March 2008This lovely book is a collection of modern and casual clothes all knitted in traditional Shetland wool. There are twenty projects in the book including a few for men with the richly cabled and shadow-work stripe pullovers. The women's jumpers, jacket and coats are elegant and timeless classics but do not look dated which is perfect for Shetland yarn that will wear very well. There are a couple of star knits in the book but you might, of course, find others that tick your 'must-knit' box. Look out for the Passive Polka Dots jumper which is knitted in dramatic black and the dots themselves are actually holes that reveal the colour of whatever you are wearing underneath. It is very clever and so unusual you might expect only to see such a thing on the catwalk. At the other end of the spectrum there is a fantastic Fair Isle jumper that is full of traditional notes but has a very modern aspect. It has bands of Celtic circles in autumnal tones that look like they are highlighted in the middle thanks to the subtle shade changes. * Knit Today * Read more...
