In this follow-up to Knit to Flatter, author Amy Herzog is back with more real-talk for knitters. In Knit Wear Love, she guides us through picking a base pattern that not only works for our inherent shape, but also suits our size and style - all with the skill of a top-notch teacher and designer and the honesty and humor of a BFF.
Known for her uncanny ability to simplify what might initially seem complex, Herzog masterminded for Knit Wear Love an easy mix-and-match pattern system that allows us to choose among the eight key sweater forms (pullover, cardigan, vest, cowl, tunic, wrap, tank, and bolero/shrug); eight fashion styles (modern, classic, romantic, sporty, bohemian, avant-garde, vintage, and casual); a trove of customization details; ten sizes; and three gauges of yarn.
The result Sweaters we can knit with confidence, wear with pride, and love for many years to come.
Amy Herzog is the author of Knit to Flatter and the creator of the Fit to Flatter online series. She teaches courses on Craftsy and in yarn shops countrywide. Her sweater designs have been featured in Twist Collective, Knitscene, Interweave Knits, Knitty, and more.
