Description
With this book, you will no longer want to use synthetic wool from the petrochemical industry. Make way for ethical and responsible wool, to knit while respecting the planet, and the players in the wool industry.
In this book, Charlotte Vannier offers:
- A presentation of all kinds of yarns to knitting in vegetable fibres, but also animal wools that are ethically respectful of animals.
- 15 knitting patterns (including 5 with Fonty yarns).
- Tips for reusing the wools of your old sweaters.
- All the advice for taking good care of your woolens to keep them as long as possible.
- Explanations for repairing any small tears.
- A description of the main French players involved in ethical and eco-responsible wool.
This book is for all knitters (even the least experienced) with only 3 stitches used which are detailed step by step at the beginning of the work. 5 patterns are made with Fonty yarns: mittens in FADO, a round neck CYCLADE, mittens in BAMBOO, ribbed socks in NIMBUS, and a jersey beanie with rolled edges in GENGIS KHAN 3.
