Twist & Knit: A Dozen Knitted Patterns for Handspun, Hand-dyed, and One-of-a-kind Yarns

And by using small pattern repeats, flexible gauge, and specific construction styles, she is able to help you eke out as many stitches as possible from that precious yarn. You'll find photo-rich tutorials on four cast-ons, three bind-offs, two specific stitch techniques, and blocking. Miriam's book is a home run. --Clara Parkes, Knitter's ReviewBuilding on her particular talent and strength (namely designing irresistable lace patterns) Miriam Felton has created a one-of-a-kind, accessible reference work alongside her stunning pattern collection in Twist & Knit.
