Description

This book is a celebration of some of the finest craft knitting in the world, and the unacknowledged people who created it. It is a superb collection of the varied and intricate patterns of the British Isles, whose origins date back centuries. The author has travelled around the remote fishing villages of East Scotland, North East England, Humberside, East Anglis, Cornwall, Aran and Fair Isle to obtain these patterns and they have all been recorded directly from the oral tradition, transposed from documents and family albums, or recreated from old photographs.
