I was very excited to receive this from amazon.com today. It's a new book from Interweave Press and comprises knitted kimono patterns. There is a brief history of kimono types and hints on designing your own kimonos. Most of them are knitted in aran weight yarn ( U.S. worsted ).
I'm not too keen on some of the colour choices, but if I look beyond that, there are a lot of styles I would like to make.
I really like the " I am not a sweater knitter " button that I posted last time. However, if kimonos are classed as sweaters, this makes me a turncoat. It's my prerogative to change my mind!
