Contemporary Irish Knits

This new collection is exactly what today's knitter is looking for: just challenging enough to be fun to knit, thoughtfully designed for a beautiful finished project, and accompanied by inspiring design and photography. The patterns showcase traditional Aran patterns - with which the knitting community has long been fascinated - to create the more fitted and flattering shapes that modern day knitters prefer. The book will appeal on a number of different levels, as a pattern book that knitters (old and young) will want to knit from, as a showcase for the remaining Irish yarn mills (using interviews and photos) and as a celebration of the Irish countryside.
