Knitting New Mittens
and Gloves:
Warm and Adorn Your Hands
in 28 Innovative Ways
by Robin Melanson
|
Because they are small, quick to make, and don’t require a lot of yarn, mittens and gloves
are perfect projects for knitting throughout the year, and they also offer an ideal opportunity
for beginning and more seasoned knitters to experiment with new techniques, yarns, and styles.
With its fresh, original sensibility, Knitting New Mittens and Gloves will captivate knitters
of every level of skill. This book combines traditional and untraditional techniques— as well as
influences as far-flung as Gothic architecture, Estonian lace, and Wagnerian opera, in a winning
collection of patterns for adults and children. From wool mittens filled with unspun fleece and
arm warmers with leather laces, to cotton mesh fingerless gloves and silk-beaded mitts to be
worn as adornments, and each design has an unexpected twist.
