Reseña del editor:

In "Handknit Holidays", top knitwear designers from the United States, Canada, Belgium, and Australia share their unique Christmas, Hanukah, and winter solstice gift-giving, decorating, and dress-up projects, plus a few favorite holiday traditions. Projects include knitted and felted ornaments; colorful strands of pompom garland; a Christmas tree skirt inspired by renowned sweaters of the Aran Islands; a wire-and-bead menorah; vintage-style beaded gloves; a poncho and matching dog sweater; and a full-range of super-quick projects for that last-minute holiday rush (balsam sachets, elf caps, a silk eye mask, funky flower pins). Rounding out the collection are a few grand projects (a patchwork afghan, a lace shawl, a trio of table runners, a linen tablecloth) bound to become family heirlooms. Ranging from classic to hipster-chic, the projects in "Handknit Holidays" all share a subtle sophistication until now in short supply in the holiday craft market. Among the contributing designers are knitting-world stars like Nicky Epstein, Jo Sharp, Teva Durham, and Priscilla Gibson-Roberts.
