The latest volume of By Hand is here!
By Hand is a series of lookbooks where each issue focuses on a city or region. The subject matter is the makers of that community, the designers, hand-dyers, and fiber artists that both shape and draw inspiration from the place they call home.
The focus of this issue is Montana’s Big Sky Country, and the weavers, bakers, yarn makers, boat builders, and jewelers who live and work there.
I spotted a familiar yarn amidst the patterns in this issue – Andrea Hungerford’s “Gallatin Wraparound” is knit with 2 strands of Shibui Lunar and 1 strand of Shibui Twig held together throughout.
Along with maker profiles and knitting patterns, By Hand also features recipes and other crafty projects. So many of us partake in a variety of handiwork, though we may call one or another a favorite; it’s nice to see a diversity of interests on display in this publication.
Look for By Hand here at the Hillsborough Yarn Shop!
