About this title

Synopsis

The author has investigated the development of textiles in Ireland and the result of her research is this collection of 24 hand-knitted designs, each inspired by a part of Ireland's history and culture. The designs include garments for men, women and children and even a bedspread created from a 19th century pattern. They range from easy knit to the more challenging. Each design has a short historical introduction, comprehensive knitting instructions, colour photographs of the garment, colour chart and the inspirational source behind the garment.
