Synopsis

Bold designs for sweaters, jackets, skirts, cardigans and a shawl catering specifically for the larger woman, are also suitable for men, pregnant women and all those who prefer a loose, unstructured look. Beginners and experienced knitters alike will find plenty to choose from as the collection includes straightforward chunky knits and more complicated Fair Isles and cables, using a variety of natural yarns - cottons, wools and mohair available from Rowan yarns. The designs are grouped thematically: summer cottons, winter warms, sophisticated classics, evening wear and everyday casuals. There is also advice on knitting techniques, guides to lengthening/shortening and adapting patterns. Clear, easy to follow charts are provided.
