Knitting Marvellous Mittens by Charlene Schurch
Ethnic knitting is one way to expand your design repertoire while touching on the past, and each of these 42 patterns is based on the rich knitting tradition of Russia's Komi people. There are complete instructions and charts for 36 mittens (plus two socks, and two hats). Why mittens? they are simply knitting in its highest form - you create the fabric and shape it at the same time. They are small, so the materials are not costly. They are portable, so you can work on them anywhere. And they are fun to wear - whether you are making a snowman or walking the dog. * History * Komi patterns * In praise of mittens * Basic techniques * * Mitten instructions * Basic patterns * Septenary borders * * Wide borders * Reticulations * Complex borders * Alternative ways of working * Circular needles * Flat knitting * Machine knitting *| SKU | Unavailable |
