Synopsis

"10 Secrets of the LaidBack Knitters" speaks to all levels of knitters who want to enhance and expand their knitting experience in joyful and substantive ways. With humour and insight, authors Vicki Stiefel and Lisa Souza illustrate how to become a laidback knitter - one who enjoys the process as much as the product. Be inspired by the mix of people, patterns, and places in their knitting world; follow the steps they took; and, discover the secrets that set them along this path. An amazing collection of twenty-seven patterns - complete with instructions and charts - fills the book with elegant shawls, chic sweaters, colourful scarves and more from a spectrum of designers, all beautifully photographed in full-colour. "10 Secrets" contains a wealth of other valuable and fun information including profiles of inspiring knitters, websites the authors can't live without, info on fibres, spinning, crochet, resources on how to knit patternless, and much more! This book gives knitters permission to relax and have fun; to see that knitting can be as much about the process as about the finished product, and know that the stitches they knit can express the inner joy they feel. The exciting patterns - aimed at knitters from beginners to experienced - complement the books exuberant purpose and style.
