In addition to the articles and personal essays, Knitting Green includes 20 contemporary projects from
top designers for garments, accessories, gifts, and home furnishings, all designed to use earth-friendly
Natural Knits for
Babies and Moms yarns or to serve an earth-friendly purpose. In addition to Ann Budd, designers include Pam Allen,
page 23 Mags Kandis, Deborah Newton, Vicki Square, and more. The collection has a wearable but fashionable
feel (similar to the Style series)—projects are current without being trendy. These appealing, innovative
designs give knitters a sense that they are helping the planet while making beautiful and useful knits.
Each designer interprets the challenge of “knitting green” in her own way: reducing disposable plastic
bags, facilitating an alternative to chemical detergent, using fiber that would otherwise go to waste,
and keeping wearers warm or cool without using energy.

Expert knitter and crocheter Lily Chin has been teaching cable knitting for nearly 20 years to packed
houses and eager students. With Power Cables, she shares her designing and teaching expertise to
create a must-have resource on this popular technique.
This book takes the reader from the most basic twisted stitches through complex and imaginative
interpretations of cables that add texture, color, and even nontraditional explorations (such as turning
stitches around, constructing cables with I-cord, and wrapping stitches to create the illusion of cables).
Lily’s signature and sought-after technique for creating reversible cables is thoroughly explained and
integrated with the rest of the techniques, teaching the reader to make almost any cable reversible. In Knitwear Design
addition to knitting any cable pattern, readers will learn Lily’s new charting system, which shows the Workshop
behavior of the cable more clearly. Other tips include cabling without a cable needle, choosing the best page 23
yarns to show off different cable effects, and even designing your own cable patterns.
Readers can practice each of these skills in an original knitted pattern—the book contains 15 original
patterns for pullovers, jackets, bags, socks, and accessories.

panying the information is a breathtaking montage of photos showing vintage traditional garments,

construction ideas that are both interesting to knit and very wearable. Featured techniques include
knitting in the round and steeking, lace, cables, Fair Isle, twined knitting, and embroidery.
Rowan designer Lucinda Guy’s newest collection includes the best of new and old in knitwear: the in-
spiration of folk traditions, the wholesome purity of natural wool yarns, and the styles of today’s knitter.

Taking the craft beyond intriguing but often nonfunctional yarns that are often labeled “art yarns,”
Get Spun teaches the reader to create useful yarns with structure and balance. By combining this
range of skills with an unlimited range of fiber possibilities, readers can not only create the yarn of
their dreams, they can re-create it and use it for their fiber-art projects.
Intended for the advanced beginner to intermediate spinner, this book explores the spinning fun-
damentals, techniques for spinning wool and silk, spinning with nontraditional materials (fabric, silk
cocoons), introducing add-ins (beads, locks, etc.), and creating exciting plying effects. Nearly all of
the colorways featured in Symeon’s yarns are created by hand-dyeing or blending. In addition to the The Intentional
spinning techniques, Symeon will share techniques for easy home dyeing and using a drumcarder to Spinner
blend colors and fibers. page 31

socks. Symeon is a graduate of Penn State University and the Massachusetts College of Art. Before
settling in Vermont, she traveled around the country, supporting herself by selling handmade clothes
and fabric accessories. After having children, Symeon relearned the quiet and portable craft of knitting.
Handpainting yarn was quick to follow, and spinning seemed like the logical next step. Fibers quickly
overtook her mind and home. She began selling her yarns at pippikneesocks.com to feed her fiber
habit in June 2004. She began writing articles for Knittyspin in 2006 and was featured in Spin to Knit
