New American Knits: Classic Sportswear Patterns
<div><p><b>Practical and stylish pieces for daily life!</b></p><p><i>New American Knits</i> offers garments that are casual but polished, equally appropriate whether running errands, at the office, or socializing with friends. Author <b>Amy Christoffers</b> takes her inspiration from the clean lines and elegant functionality of American sportswear and creates projects that have a classic nostalgic feel. In designing her fashionable modern uniform, Amy focuses on beautiful everyday sweaters, tops, and pretty accessories.</p><p>Included are sections on texture and lace and pops of colorwork to add visual and knitterly interest. Projects feature traditional, seamless, and semi-seamless construction as well as detailed finishing. <i>New American Knits</i> has a "country house" feel with touches of heather grays, tweeds, slubby textures, and muted tones. The book is visually elegant with a streak of casual bohemian style, much like the projects themselves.</p></div>
