“This book is folk art, not masterwork, and it speaks of everyday things that have meaning to everyday people like you and me,” Mary says. “Don’t feel bound to any rule that doesn’t suit you or your knitting. Examine The New Stranded Colorwork and others for charts that are interchangeable or create your own using graph paper. Just count the number of stitches each repeat and work accordingly.”
Enjoy this project preview, accompanied by Mary’s thoughts and inspiration for each piece. Breathe new life into your colorwork knitting with The New Stranded Colorwork eBook!
