Andrea Brauneis: Fair Isle Fashion Knits, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

Transform your knitting with 17 stunning colorwork patterns that celebrate vibrant designs from top to bottom, perfect for everyday elegance!

Instead of restricting stranded knitting to only the yoke of a sweater, the 17 patterns in this collection embrace colorwork from top to bottom. Modern and traditional motifs are used in new ways to create an array of styles and shapes, from cardigans, hoodies, and short sleeve sweaters to cozy pullovers, ponchos, and even a dress. A variety of colorful yarns are used to varying effects: mohair for soft halos, merino wool for stitch definition, and alpaca for lightweight warmth. The sweaters are unique and sure to be noticed, yet are comfortable and appropriate for everyday wear.
