Aran knitwear is instantly recognisable, respectfully fashionable
and generously comfortable. With a long-treasured heritage steeped
in Irish history, it is no surprise that most knitters express a
wish to produce an Aran knit at some time in their creative life.
This book delves into the history and heritage of this popular
style, offering traditional designs and patterns, whilst providing
inspiration for contemporary and innovative adaptations. Written
for the dedicated knitter, Aran Design: The Creative Knitter's
Handbook offers a unique insight into the trends and techniques
associated with the style. This beautifully illustrated book
includes: the history of Aran knitting; recommended materials and
equipment; a dictionary of stitches; how to plan an initial design;
working out the numbers for a project and finishing tips and
techniques. It is invaluable reading for all who wish to learn more
about Aran knitting.
