Brave New Knits is the first book to celebrate the convergence of traditional
hand-knitting and modern technology. The Internet has made it possible for
the knitting community to connect through photos, pattern-sharing, and blogs
that document the knitting projects and passions of dozens of designers and
enthusiasts. With a Foreword written by Jessica Marshall Forbes, co-founder
of Ravelry.com, Brave New Knits includes 26 must-have garment and accessory
patterns, all gorgeously photographed by knitting celebrity Jared Flood of
Brooklyn Tweed. Contributors range from established designers like Norah
Gaughan, Wendy Bernard, Anne Hanson, and knitgrrl Shannon Okey, to rising
stars such as Melissa Wehrle, Connie Chang Chinchio, and Hilary Smith Callis.
In-depth interviews with the designers reveal their design philosophy and
passions. From shapely sweaters and delicate shawls to fingerless gloves and
stylish hats, each of the knitted designs features detailed directions and
charts to inspire both the beginner and experienced knitter.
