Nicky Epstein brings her hallmark embellished style to the simple scarf in her latest Vogue Knitting title, Nicky Epstein’s Signature Scarves, a collection of over 30 unique knitted and felted neckpieces. Knitters will find an array of patterns to delight and inspire like a tweed wrap with appliqué leaves, a scarf of interlocking bright circles and one with a skull pattern. Felters will enjoy working on the scarf made of interwoven felted strips, and a knit-then-felt piece adorned with autumn roses.
Scarves are ideal for knitters looking for short term projects and gifts, and Epstein’s unique touch and use of popular techniques like mosaic stitch, felting, and shibori, creates what Booklist’s Barbara Jacobs calls “unexpectedly rich and dramatic” patterns that no knitter will want to miss.
