Maggie’s Ireland: Designer Knits on Location by Maggie Jackson
A fashion designer’s approach to handknits and new life to the Irish love of pattern and texture are found in this truly desirable book. The author explains ‘I change the stitches as I go along because if I find it interesting, you will.’ Using Irish tweeds and linens interspersed with unusual fibres such as ribbon, fur and denim, there are over 40 projects including whimsical and dramatic designs for women through to knits for men, children and the home. Illustrated with lavish photographs of the knits and scenes from around Northern Ireland
