Product Information

Yarns made from plant fibers, modern synthetics, and silk take the spotlight in this collection of 21 classic knitting patterns for socks, scarves, hats, bags, vests, sweaters, and even a luxurious bathrobe. Some knitters are discouraged by the thought of baggy hemp sweaters and droopy cotton socks when they consider vegetable fibers, but this authoritative, fun, and light-hearted guide promises that, while wool has no equal when it comes to elasticity and warmth, the right tricks and techniques produce non-wool fashions that fit well, wear well, and hang beautifully. Knitters are taught to knit swatches to study the behavior of a yarn, to choose an appropriate pattern, and to master techniques for reinforcing stitches and inserting knit-ins of springier yarn to keep cotton, silk, and other fibers from sagging. Key information about durability, weight, pilling, and special handling is provided for acrylic, bamboo, cotton, hemp, Ingeo, linen, lycra, nylon, polyester, rayon, silk, soy, Tencel, and viscose yarns, and a chapter of helpful tips advises on needles to use (and avoid), how to start new balls and weave in ends, how to work intarsia and Fair Isle patterns, smart ways to control the cost of materials, and the right methods for washing, drying, and blocking the finished pieces.

Avis les plus pertinents

  • Excellent book for medium experienced knitters

    A most interesting book. I was especially interested in the first part on the make-up of the different kinds of fabrics and how they can be used. The patterns are great for younger knitters---I've been through that stage and now I'm just knitting for the fun of using all the lovely yarns--simple things that I can watch TV and do too.

  • Perfect Name!

    Amy has dane a great job on this book. If you do not like wool, or knit for people that are allergic to or do not like wool, as my mother does not, this is a must have book! The patterns are wonderful, you will definitely find many of the patterns that you will want to knit. There are kinds of alternatives to wool to knit with and Amy makes sure that you know about all of them. A great tuturiol at the beginning of the book about the yarns and how to take care of them. I think, this is a must have book for all serious knitters! Leah4003

  • No sheep for you (Amy R Singer)

    Beautifully illustrated book with challenging projects for your family and friends. This is great for those on your gift giving list who cannot tolerate wool due to allergies, as the title says, this book uses unusual materials like hemp to work into beautiful sweaters, purses, mittens. A must have for the dedicated knitter!
