Nicky Epstein’s Knitting on Top of the World: The Global Guide to Traditions, Techniques and Design

By Nicky Epstein

Nicky takes the reader on a world tour of knitting traditions and techniques—colorwork, cables, lace and more—explaining the origin and use of each technique in folk knitting traditions. Then she goes on to reinvigorate and recombine all these techniques in her inimitable way to create over 40 all-new, innovative designs. This is Nicky’s largest, most important collection of patterns to date! Chapters include:

• Britain and the Windswept Isles
• From the Far North: Russia, Scandinavia, the Baltics
• Central Europe
• Around the Mediterranean
• Native American Traditions
