POETRY
IN STITCHES
BY
SOLVEIG HISDAL
This
book is authored by Solveig Hisdal and is a Fair Isle Knitter's
dream. The patterns are based on traditional Norwegian Folk
Costumes and everyday clothing. The photos are beautiful
and this is definitely an "Eye Candy" book.
There
are 22 patterns, primarily sweaters and cardigans. The knitter
must be familiar with steeking and be a fairly experienced
to advanced knitter. The instructions are bare-boned and
the author writes assuming you are already experienced.
If
you are an adventurous intermediate knitter or experienced
in
Fair
Isle, check this book out – you'll love the bright but conservative
patterns.
