Hats On! 31 Warm and Winsome Caps for Knitters
Schurch, master knitter and author of Mostly Mittens: Traditional Knitting Patterns from Russia's Komi People (LJ 11/15/98), now turns her attention to caps. Knitters often use caps as "proving grounds" for patterns and styles they plan to use later in garments. The knitter who completes these 31 caps will be well versed in a variety of ethnic knitting styles and color pattern techniques. Instructions are clearly written and include excellent graphs as well as a color photo of each hat. As no novelty or unusual yarns are required, this book is a good choice for even small public libraries located in areas where local yarn stores do not abound.Copyright 1999 Reed Business Information, Inc.
