Michael Pearson's Traditional Knitting by Michael Pearson
After visiting the remote fishing villages of Scotland and England, Michael Pearson compiled this extensive record of unique, centuries-old patterns. His sources include oral traditions, documents, family albums, and photos. Pearson combines a social history of the villages and the living history of these crafts with detailed patterns and practical instructions for knitters. Richly illustrated, including 32 pages in color.
Michael Pearson's interest in knitting began with his residence in a Northumberland fishing village, where he talked with locals about their traditional crafts. In addition to running a mail-order company specializing in traditional knitwear, he is a founding member of the Northern Guild of Knitters and co-director of the Northern Wool Cooperative.
