Alterknits: Imaginative Projects And Creativity Exercises

ISBN: 1584794550

NLB Call No: English q746.432041 RAD -[ART]

This is a pretty book you’d want to add to your shelf with it’s nice fabric+paper cover, nice fonts, happy colors and an attractive model on the cover. It’s a pattern book and not a learn-how-to-knit book, so don’t be mistaken. It isn’t as comprehensive as Stitch ‘N Bitch: The Knitter’s Handbook but I love its Modern Bustier, Lace-up Fingerless Gloves, Paper Lanterns and Screen Door patterns; the latter two experiments with uncommon sources of yarns.
