Knit Wear Love
By Amy Herzog
In this follow-up to Knit to Flatter, author Amy Herzog is back with more real-talk for knitters. In Knit Wear Love, she guides us through picking a base pattern that not only works for our inherent shape, but also suits our size and styleāall with the skill of a top-notch teacher and designer and the honesty and humor of a BFF. Known for her uncanny ability to simplify what might initially seem complex, Herzog masterminded for Knit Wear Love an easy mix-and-match pattern system that allows us to choose among the eight key sweater forms (pullover, cardigan, vest, cowl, tunic, wrap, tank, and bolero/shrug); eight fashion styles (modern, classic, romantic, sporty, bohemian, avant-garde, vintage, and casual); a trove of customization details; ten sizes; and three gauges of yarn.
Knit Wear Love is to sweaters whatĀ Knit to FlatterĀ was to bodies:Ā A comprehensive, clear-talk guide toward getting a garment you want to wear.
And in this case, āwant to wearā means that everything about that sweater fits seamlessly intoĀ your own lifeĀ andĀ your own wardrobe.Ā Herzog helps guide you toward choices that will make you happy in terms of
- fibres and fabrics
- fashion styles
- size and modifications
- detailing and stitch patterning
All in the context of an easy mix-and-match system to the sweaters. The book is broken out into 8 common sweater āsilhouettesā. For each,Ā she wrote a āmeta patternā that allows you to choose your own adventure toward whatever mix of gauge, style, and two customization options youād like. All options work well together ā which means there areĀ at least 72 different sweater patternsĀ depending on how you slice things!
