Though the book includes eight detailed patterns, this is
more than a pattern book. Consider it to be an adventure in Tuscan inspiration,
a plunge into le dolce vita with favorite recipes stirred in along with
color, texture and plenty of creative seasoning. Every design begins with
color taken from the Tuscan countryside, a combination of hues which translate
into a fibre feast for knitterly enjoyment. Read about how I pay homage
to Siena, the revered city of golden brown, or the way in which olive groves
and rolling fields can be knit into a wrap. Or, see how a shady grotto
can be transformed into a silken fall of moss and stone for a very special
scarf. If you can dream it, you can knit it. |
