Alice Starmore's Book of Fair Isle Knitting by Alice Starmore

Scotland's Fair Isle is celebrated the world over for its distinctive, stranded-colour knitting, and Alice Starmore is the number one name in designing and instructing knitters in this appealing regional tradition. This volume is profusely illustrated with colour photographs, plus drawings and charts that illustrate the art's history, patterns and techniques. Aficionados agree: If you have only one book of Fair Isle patterns, this the one to have!
An acclaimed textile designer, author, artist, and photographer, Alice Starmore is a native of Scotland's Isle of Lewis. She has taught and lectured extensively throughout Britain, Europe and the United States. She has written 16 books and countless magazine articles, and her classic Book of Fair Isle Knitting is the work that introduced Americans to the popular traditional technique.
