Knitting Around New Edition

Circular Designs & Techniques

Elizabeth Zimmermann

Description

Knitting Around, Elizabeth Zimmermann's classic, includes chapters on Socks, Mittens, Seamless Fair Isle Yokes (with Henley style option), Norwegian-style sweaters, as well as garments with innovative construction such as the Moebius scarf and vest, the Very Warm Hat, the Bog jacket (for adults or babies), Dickeys, Pi Are Square Shawl, an Aran Coat and The Elizabeth Zimmermann Coat pattern, a flattering A-line design.

This special book includes an autobiographical account of Elizabeth's childhood in England, learning to knit, art school and travel throughout Europe during the late 1920s and early 1930s, and an eventual immigration to the United States prior to WWII – a fascinating read.

The new edition features full colour throughout, better charts, more garments, more sizing, editors' comments and clarifications within the text, edited instructions and clearer organization. Meg Swansen has also added notes to preface each chapter. Other updates include improved archival images, plus new photographs, drawings and paintings throughout and an expanded gallery of Elizabeth Zimmermann's art.
