Shawlettes are the new socks! These hugely popular, fashion accessories are worn about the shoulders and meant for showing off.
They're not only stylish but these budget-friendly pieces make for perfect portable projects.
International knitwear designer Jean Moss knows this best and has pulled together a wonderfully creative collection of 25 knitting patterns for shawlettes, mini-wraps cowls, collars, and more.
The garments are grouped by style: Country, Couture, Folk, and Vintage, and feature gorgeous yarns of varying content, including wool, silk, cotton, and sustainable fibers.
Knitters of all levels will draw inspiration from the gorgeous four-color photos.
Additionally helpful are illustrations, charts, schematics and an appendix with instructions for special stitches.
Sweet Shawlettes can be endlessly reinterpreted in beautiful ways as this book shows.
It's one that will capture knitters' imaginations for years to come.
