Vintage KnitsThirty Knitting Designs from Rowan for Men and Women
Designs by Kim Hargreaves, Kaffe Fassett, Martin Storey, Sarah Dallas, Sharon Peake, Louisa Harding, Brandon Mably, and Lucinda Guy These knitwear designs draw their inspiration from the 40s, 50s, and 60s, when fashion emanated charm, simplicity, and elegance. Rejuvenated by the postwar years, men and women embraced styles that captured feminine appeal and masculine exuberance, glorying in the recovered pleasures of fine cloth, rich texture, and relaxed fit. Inspired by old photos, archival patterns, and films like Breakfast at Tiffany’s, the classic designs in Vintage Knits have been adapted for modern figures and ease of wear. 138pp • 9 x 10 • 75 color photos throughout • 978 1 57076 312 0 • hc • $25.00 |
