Inspired by the Sparrow and Kestrel linen yarns made by Quince &
Company, this collection uses geometric shapes and unusual construction
to provide adventurous knitters with 10 new designs that are perfect for
wearing in the warmer months. True to form, the author makes use of her
masterful understanding of the knitted stitch and characteristics unique
to plant fiber types like linen to create unconventional designs. The
book includes patterns for three tees, two short-sleeved open cardigans,
a shrug, a poncho, a tank top, a scarflet, and a shawlet. The pieces
feature eyelets, dropped stitches, cables, and mesh to be used alone or
in combination. These projects are far from basic, garden-variety
pieces--each one a bold statement of modern style.
