Echoes: 24 Modern Knits Inspired by Iconic Women by Susan Crawford.
Echoes features knitwear patterns dedicated to incredible women — both real and fictional — who have influenced Susan’s life. The array of icons includes authors Beatrix Potter and Virginia Woolf, musicians Cyndi Lauper and Kate Bush, as well as activists and artists.
This versatile collection features a variety of styles and techniques. Susan created the designs to resemble heirloom pieces, well-loved and handed down through generations, with stories interwoven into their fabric.
The book showcases the continuing impact of others on each of us, and how inspiration often works: creating layers within layers, echoes within echoes.
