Description

For some knitters, knitting a sweater without step-by-step instructions is intimidating; for others, following instructions is tedious. Knitting in the Old Way by Priscilla Gibson-Roberts and Deb Robson (2004, Nomad Press) is for knitters who fall somewhere in between. Taking the books approach enough information for the basis of dozens of sweaters, but the freedom to choose yarn, gauge, finished size, and stitch or color pattern Ann Budd designed this classic pullover.
