Northern Knits: Designs Inspired by the Knitting Traditions of Scandinavia; Iceland; and the Shetland Isles

DOC Northern Knits: Designs Inspired by the Knitting Traditions of Scandinavia; Iceland; and the Shetland Isles by Lucinda Guy in Arts-Photography

Description

Unconventional; rule-breaking socks are part and parcel in this unique guide to sock knitting that includes 15 new sock patterns. The skills of the average sock knitter are increased through design exploration and advanced stitch manipulation; treating the sock as a knitted canvas where elements are strategically and intentionally placed. New designs of floral lace patterns; angular geometric shapes; and unusual cables are presented along with detailed instructions on modifications to suit needs and aesthetics. The incredible range of style and complexity in this guide runs from sweet and simple to delightfully imaginative.

Lots of FunBy A CustomerPeter Larkin is a real lover of old time Burlesque. Hes lovingly researched the old sketches; and updated them making them more accessable for a modern audience. Hes done a wonderful job; and this volume is a great resource. Between the sketches and Mr. Larkins excellent notes the reader really gets to see what this lost form of entertainment was all about.
