Made famous in the US by Elsa Schiaparelli's Bowknot sweater (free pattern link above), the authors have taken this technique to a whole new level, featuring designs such as Joyce's Knit/Purl pullover, Olive Branch, and Lily Jacket, and Meg's two versions of a Monarch pullover. They get you started with three hats for practice. Innovative garment shaping; all techniques described fully including three choices of how to trap. Hardcover.
