HandPainted Yarn
by Carol Sulcoski
|
This book provides technical guidance as well as fun, creative patterns, for working with
handpainted yarns, and identifies the many challenges plus opportunities for knitting socks with
handpainted yarns. Focusing on how to make the most of these much-loved yarns, it explains how to
design projects with hand-dyed material versus other types of yarns, how to avoid the pitfalls of
pooling and splotching, and how to combine multicolored hand paints with other types of yarns.
Fresh, modern sock patterns from a variety of contributors illustrate their successful techniques,
showing that with creativity and a little technical know-how, knitters can fully take advantage of
these beautiful, yet sometimes tricky yarns.
