    About this ebook

    The über–popular craft of knitting meets the typography trend for the first time! Knitted Letters presents intarsia charts for 10 key font families—including roman, sans serif, italic, and poster—and outlines how to incorporate the letters into 30 stylish, infinitely customizable projects. Knitters will learn how to stitch personalized messages and monograms into pillows, scarves, throws, and more, and to create bold three-dimensional letters to display or give. With step-by-step instructions for upper- and lowercases, helpful charts and illustrations, and photos of all the gorgeous projects, knitters and typography enthusiasts alike will love crafting endless personalized lettered creations.

Having studied art at the University of Pennsylvania, Catherine started teaching crafts professionally in the US over a decade ago, and now continues to teach at craft studios across London, UK. This is her first book.
