| Synopsis: |
From tartan to twill, tweed woolens are known for their classic looks and understated stylishness. Today, tweed has emerged from the countryside to become a contemporary fashion favourite. In "Tweed", the first-ever guide to knitting with tweed yarns, Nancy J. Thomas offers an expert knitter's appreciation of this emblematic yarn while providing advice on choosing and caring for tweed yarns. She recounts the history of tweed yarns and fabric, explains how tweed yarn is made and teaches you to simulate the look of woven tweed fabrics in your knitting. "Tweed" includes more than 20 projects, arranged by difficulty, that are specially designed for tweed yarns, while also covering a variety of stitch patterns and techniques to help you take advantage of the appealing nubby texture of tweed woolen yarn. Beginners can opt for a North Sea Hat & Scarf Set or a Tweed River Pullover, intermediate knitters might try a Harris-Style Sampler Cardigan or a Dublin Cabled Vest, while advanced knitters can apply their skills to an Isle of Skye Jacket or an Outer Hebrides Sampler Throw. |
