Erika Knight Reihenfolge der Bücher

Landscapes have long provided a source of inspiration for artists and makers. From the sharp concrete edges of buildings and frosted hedgerows to seaweed strewn beaches and eroded cliffs, there is so much we can take from the environment around us. Texture explores Erika Knight's personal journey through the landscape of knitted fabrics as she examines the different habitats that have inspired her designs throughout her career. Broken down into countryside, city and coast, the core of this book is a compilation of simple knitting recipes that embrace the movement for 'slow fashion' and honour the process of craftsmanship. Each of the 20 garments will teach you how to tackle knitted texture - turn a graphic rib, an intricate lace stitch, and a travelling cable into a covetable collection of jumpers, gloves, hats and socks. Through each of the projects, you will consolidate and build upon new skills that will take your knitting further. With simple and stylish shapes, Erika dispenses her designer tips for creating a series of modern yet timeless garments. Including inspiring photography that showcases the beautiful designs, this book is the ultimate source for knitted texture and belongs on every knitter's bookshelf.

'This isn't about following a lifestyle; this is about living. Observing not only how a home looks but honouring how it makes us feel. Delighting in the restorative process of creating with our hands. Refined utility pieces, relaxed and unstructured, reflecting the warmth and comfort of our shelter. Simple knits for everyday ease: indoors'

Erika Knight: The Collection is a comprehensive guide to timeless knitwear projects from a leading yarncraft designer. The book is divided into four sections: Classic, Classic at Home, Glamour, and Glamour at Home, showcasing Erika's favorite patterns. The Classic section features enduring wardrobe essentials, including a quintessential aran cotton sweater and a cashmere ballet cardigan. Classic at Home offers relaxed, casual pieces that add texture to any space, such as a soft cashmere blend knit throw and a practical hemp wash mitt. Glamour presents a portfolio of sensuous knits inspired by Hollywood, featuring a lacy knit shrug, a frill-neck tea top, and a stylish three-quarter sleeve applique cardigan. Glamour at Home transforms ordinary rooms into chic spaces with items like a silk cushion adorned with mother-of-pearl buttons and a coathanger embellished with ribbon and sequins. The Glamour yarns are luxurious, including velvet chenille, satin, and silk. In the Classic sections, textiles are chosen for their enduring charm, featuring cotton, alpaca, hemp, merino, linen, and cashmere blends, all in a universally appealing color palette. This collection offers easy-wear classics and seductive glamour knits for the modern woman.

Each of the 20 projects in this book teaches you a new colour-knitting technique. The core of the book is the 20 original designs, from cushions and throws to hats and scarves, that provide the perfect vehicles for practising your colourwork, whether that is random striping, tonal phasing, texture stitches or pictoral motifs.
