The award winning designer and author of this designer knitwear hand knitting pattern book, Marianne Henio, has been machine and hand knitting for almost 30 years now, ever since she resigned from her career to have a family. She has designed and sold many individually made bespoke pieces during this time. Marianne is passionate about being able to visualise a design, create the pattern and then produce the finished piece of knitwear. This has kept her in the industry for all these years and now she is sharing her knowledge in this field with you.
If you look at the cat walks and see what is being produced by top designers in the genre of knitwear today, you can’t help but be inspired.
The yarns and needles used for her pattern in this book have been specified, but gauge guides and schematics are given so that alternative yarns can be used dependant on your choice and source. The sizes given for this pattern are 10/12 and 14/16 but it is simple enough to adjust if need be. Instructional videos are included so that each pattern can be knitted even if you have never knitted before!
Marianne creates designs which suit all ages. They are sophisticated in style, but very simple to knit for the beginner in hand knitting. Her instructions are easy to follow and concise. There are Spring and Summer Collection machine knitting pattern books already available which have proved to be very popular. A further book will be released shortly for some of her new Autumn machine knitted designs. There is an Autumn Collection pattern book available containing all 8 of Marianne's Autumn Hand Knit Collection. And there will be many hand knitting pattern books to follow.
