I've been hoping these books would show up at the shop.
Hannah Fettig's Knitbot Linen is a beautiful book. She uses all Quince & Co. Sparrow, which is only available at select shops. Since ours is not one of those shops, we can highly recommend Shibui Linen for all of the patterns in here. Here are the lovely designs: Brise Cardigan, Surrounding Tank, Lineal Cardigan, Point of View Vest, and the Aproned Tank. There's a nice slouchy hat, too, but I forgot to snap a photo.
These are all so cool! The knitting is pretty straight-forward, but the designs are really fashionable and interesting. Which one is your favorite?
Amy Herzog's Fit to Flatter is the book that so many of you have been asking about. It's a pattern collection and fit instruction manual.
I'm not going to give away any of her secrets, but the first chapter is pretty eye-opening. She will teach you things about your body and how to dress it that you have never even considered. And then she will talk about knitting, designing, and altering her lovely patterns to work for you.
We only have a few of these in the shop, so come take a look!
