Knitted Home: 30 Contemporary Knitting Projects for Your Living Space - Paperback
by Melanie Porter (Author)
Fill your home with 30 contemporary hand-knitted designs by Melanie Porter.
All of the projects in Knitted Home are easy to make and will inject style and color into your interiors. There are three color schemes to choose from--blues and greens in "Cool Collection"; reds, oranges, and yellows in "Hot Ideas"; and whites, creams, and grays in "Pale Palette"--so there is something for all tastes. You can start with smaller projects, such as the bolster pillow cover, flower vase cozy, or striped clock cover, then move on to something a little larger, such as the rope knit basket, chunky knit rug, or covered footstool. With a comprehensive techniques section, you'll discover how to use giant knitting needles and how to measure furniture for a knitted cover, as well as all the basics of knitting, so even beginners can try their hand at these fabulous ideas.Melanie Porter is a graduate of the prestigious Central Saint Martin's College in London, UK. She spent 10 years working as a knitwear designer for a number of international fashion brands before turning her expertise to furniture in 2008. Melanie creates one-off contemporary designs using antiques sourced at auctions and markets--each project is painstakingly stripped back to the frame and restored or reupholstered using a series of hand-knitted panels. Her ability to create exquisite, textured fabrics that are individually knitted and felted for every project has drawn the attention of clients and press all over the world. She lives in London, UK.
