Jazzknitting: An introduction
$20.00
Jazzknitting is a creative and liberating way to make the most of knitting's natural tendencies to curl, pool and stripe while using hand-painted yarns. Like Jazz musicians responding to each other's melodies, Jazzknitted shapes are directly affected by the dyer's decisions. Carefully chosen skeins can provide a wealth of possible knitted forms, each more intriguing than the next.
Jazzknitting is fun and stress-free. There are no swatches or mistakes to make, no stitches to count, or charts to follow. Jazzknitting is truly knitting with no worries, yet unlike free-form knitting, there are principles guiding a variety of structural decisions.
