When most people think of crafts such as knitting, the mind immediately jumps to past generations and grandmothers clicking away at the needles. In Larissa Brown's newest book, My Grandmother's Knitting, she proves that this connection to the past is a positive one and the driving force and inspiration for many of today's contemporary knitters. This unique book is made up of two parts: patterns inspired by family members of the designers and a collection of essays from designers, recounting their memories of family members for sparking their fiber journey. Some found inspiration from a grandmother or other family member who passed along the art of knitting while others trace back connections to family members whose other creative outlets led them to the same path of knitting. Top designers such as Wendy Bernard, Pam Allen, Meg Swanson, Ysolda Teague, Jared Flood and more share their stories, memories, and inspiration to fellow fiber enthusiasts - some funny, some sad, yet all are words one can relate to. In addition to the essays, there are over twenty patterns from the contributing designers that are inspired by their memories, shining a light on family and celebrating the link between generations that has made us crafters.
