A knitting sourcebook full of patterns and techniques for making shawls and wraps with ease
Kate Atherley and Kim McBrien Evans aim to equip adventurous knitters with the skills to knit and create shawls and wraps of all shapes and sizes and to help them forge their own shawl-knitting paths. Tips and tutorials address the technical aspects of shawl knitting, from shaping to adapting stitch patterns to making color and fabric choices. A gallery of patterns using a variety of yarns both mainstream and indie provides knitters with inspiration for customizing and creating their own designs.
More than a dozen patterns illustrate the featured knitting techniques. One-third of the patterns are aimed at beginning knitters, one-third teach intermediate knitters new skills for intriguing results, and one-third offer creative instruction in customizing. The featured yarns are a mix: some luxury fibers, some classics. Together, Atherley and McBrien Evans provide a 360-degree view of the shawl-creation process from designing to knitting.

Let customers speak for us
from 699 reviewsGreat yarn and excellent service. I especially liked that she was able to wind them for me, saving me lots of time so I could get creating right away.
Was at a wonderful knitting retreat put on by this shop and a few of that ladies were using this swivel cord on their needles…..of course I had to try it, so clever and useful……I promptly bought it. Thanks
Adorable, easy to locate when tossed in my bag, and they work really well
My daughter was really excited to receive this. She is going to spread out the 12 days into 24 by opening one every other day!
Just finished my table runner, used it for my warping in three lovely colors. Welf was a snobby cream, very pleased.
Beautiful color combination and the feeling of the yarn while knitting with it!

Absolutely love this product! Estelle Chunky is an amazing new addition to the shop. I'll definitely be getting more to make everyone socks for christmas!
Making two by two hat using a twisted rib and this yarn is nice to work with, my stitch definition is high and even. I am using chocolate brown tweed and it looks great.

I was very excited to cast on for socks. The colorway of the yarn is STUNNING and I can’t wait to finish this pair of socks.
It’s going to knit up beautifully into a pair of toe up socks!!
