Knitting 24/7: 30 Projects to Knit, Wear, and Enjoy, On the Go and Around the Clock
Women who knit often fill a variety of roles throughout the day, from worker or best friend, to mum or wife and though their lives may be busy, they are determined to find time to knit. "Knitting 24/7" is a collection of 30 stylish wardrobe items that fit into these typically busy lifestyles. The projects represent both what women want to wear, ranging from sweaters, scarves and shrugs to hats and mitts and what they actually have time to knit. The patterns are meant to be worked on in those lovely free moments throughout the day - during a commute to and from work or in the brief sanctity of a child's afternoon nap
