Published 2009The first-ever knitting book to offer projects exclusively for warm weather
The resurgence in the popularity of knitting didn't stop at the Mason Dixon line–but most pattern collections do. Knitting in the Sun is the first book to tap into this wide-open market by providing patterns to create shells, tanks, lightweight wraps, bags, accessories, and more, suitable for knitters in warm climates or during the summer season. While the book includes traditional warm weather stalwarts like cotton and linen, it also features patterns using the best of newer natural offerings like yarns made of or blended with hemp, bamboo, and soysilk. More than 80 full-color photos showcase these beautiful light knits.
