Gorgeous yarns abound for the knitter, but sometimes the color variations can make it difficult to find patterns that allow the yarn to shine. With this in mind, Toby Roxane Barna designed all of the pieces in this book--hats, shawls, mittens, sweaters, and more--to let the yarn be the main feature.

Most of the yarns featured are dyed by Barna herself, and are available through her Etsy shop.

In addition to being a fantastic resource for any knitter looking for simpler patterns to showcase hand-dyed yarns, this book is especially beginner-friendly.

If you’ve mastered knitting and purling and are ready to move beyond the garter stitch scarf, this is the perfect book for you. The patterns are organized in order of difficulty, and detailed, step-by-step photo tutorials are included to illustrate several skills.

The book is peppered with tips and tricks, and Barna’s conversational tone and playful style will make you feel like you have an expert knitter sitting on the couch with you, guiding you through each thoughtfully-designed project.
