Omschrijving
A how-to guide for the experienced knitter as well as the beginner. Full of tips and techniques for the contemporary knitter, it illustrates all things vintage in the world of wool. Along with telling you how to knit, it includes original vintage patterns for every member of the family.
[In the late 1960s] there was a chap called James Norbury, who had his own knitting show on the BBC. I sat in on some of the programmes, and good stuff it was, too. I learned lots of racy stuff about 'knit one, purl one'
Knitting is the saving of a life
The strongest single influence in British knitting
James Norbury is an artist, author and illustrator with a love of nature and animals. James was born in the Forest of Dean and he's spent most of his life writing and drawing. He studied Zoology at university and after graduating he moved to Ireland. From there he travelled around the UK living in Newcastle, Swansea and Cheltenam, some of the time living on a narrowboat. James now lives back in Swansea with his wife and their seven cats. He volunteers with his local Cats Protection.
