'Gansey, Aran, Fair Isle, Bohus: the great folk sweaters of the world have been knitted for many generations with skill, individuality and joy -- not line-by-line printed patterns. You can join this fine tradition by mastering some simple fundamentals of design and construction. You'll draft your own styles, chart your own patterns, create your own heirlooms. Knitting in the Old Way makes it clear and simple. Brilliant multi-colored patterns of the Scandinavian countries, intriguing motifs of the Shetland Islands, and rich sculptural knits of northern Europe are covered in detail -- the history as well as the how-to. Photos and drawings guide you through the basic steps and special tricks of the trade that knitters all over the world have developed over the years.' -- from back cover. Keywords: craft, knit, needlework.
