About the book
Written by Norah Gaughan, one of the most innovative and respected knitwear designers working today,
Knitting Nature was an instant classic when it was released in hardcover in 2006, and it is now available at a must-have paperback price.
In
Knitting Nature, Gaughan blends together the natural and artistic world with 39 stunning, fun-to-knit designs for women, men, and children. Among them are a skirt patterned after the hexagonal scales nature has used to cover a domed turtle’s shell, a jacket whose collar grows in a spiral—much the same way a ram’s horn does—and a tank top with leaves that grow the same way they do on a stem.
