The author has resurrected the ancient Scandinavian art of two-end knitting (also known as Tvebinding or twined knitting). The technique for creating the beautiful and distinctive garments she illustrates in this book (sweaters, jackets, skirts, mittens, vests, even a silk blouse) are thoroughly and clearly explained, from the basics to new refinements and designs. Very well-illus. with b&w photos, line drawings, charts.

Fascinating book,

This review is from: Two-end Knitting (Paperback)
Twined knitting is a new interest for me and I wanted to learn as much as possible about it. This is a fascinating book in explaining the history and various aspects of the technique, so it gave me exactly what I wanted. However, if you want to have some easy, yet stunning, patterns for twined knitting, see New Twists on Twined Knitting: A Fresh Look at a Traditional Technique. My suggestion is to start with "new Twists", then read this book if you want to know more.

This review is from: Two-end Knitting (Paperback)
this is a good affordable book on twined knitting, the other two are expensive, but perhaps more comprehensive. this covers the techniques and gives patterns for those who need them.

TWO-ENDED knitting told me every thing I needed to know. Able to understand, no guessing.
