From casual to formal; the kimono shape has endured for centuries as an internationally recognized icon of Japanese life and culture. With 18 original designs; each a knitted interpretation of a traditional kimono style; this handbook makes knitting homemade kimonos deceptively easy. Projects are based on rectangular forms that require very little shaping; and are ideal first-garment projects for knitters wanting to venture beyond scarves. Clever details in stitch patterns and edgings; such as the use of silk; linen; and bamboo yarns; add sophistication and elegance to even the simplest designs. The flattering drape and luxurious style of the kimono will appeal to veteran and beginning knitters alike.
