From the book: "This fabric, knitted in narrow vertical stripes, is nubby and very dense. It is well suited to heavy knitted coats and jackets calculated to keep the wind out; and it can be done also in fine yarn for such articles as gloves."Collection

Nicole's first knitting project was a hat with years, made with kool-aid dyed yarn. Eventually she learned to embrace the specific kind of patience required for knitting and ventured into more challenging patterns. You have to be okay learning to mess up when knitting; yarn is flexible, knitting non-destructive. She is happy to be a part of this knitting project and is honored to contribute to this collection of swatches and stories!Lexicon
