3 fantastic new books all featuring Rowan Yarns
Nordic Knits from Martin Storey. This collection of 25 accessories and home projects in Rowan's natural wool and cotton yarns by top designer Martin Storey.
Inspired by traditional Scandinavian colourwork and stitch patterns, it has a stylish contemporary feel, with great designs including hats and scarves, waistcoats and shrugs plus cushions throws and bags.
Touching Elegance from Kim Hargreaves. As Autumn leaves fall...
Cross the threshold into a new season with an eclectic blend of chic sophistication and bohemian charm.
Warm tones of mulberry, chestnut and bitter chocolate sit beside a monochrome pallet of inky black and charcoal grey, drawing attention to the luscious yarns and sumptuous silhouettes.
Studio Knits. This collection of 21 great catwalk designs from the successful Rowan Studio brochures has been selected by Kate Buller. It features a range of great garment designs for all seasons, with cardigans, tops, jackets, wraps, waistcoats and sweaters in a range of Rowan yarns.
Rowan Studio 21 is also now available. Understated elegance was the Autumn/Winter 2010 catwalks' main message. With inspiration taken from 50's icons, this issue's theme is about desirable staples. Established stitch details in sophisticated colours combine with sleek, urban silhouettes and modern details to make the designs both fresh and timeless.
