SARK
By Kate Davis
book in english
In Scottish, a sark is an essential layer, the foundation of any outfit. In her new collection, Kate Davies has created twelve foundational designs with structure and simplicity at their core. Featuring a cable stitch technique that produces fabric with a beautifully textured, waffle look, each pattern explores the creative potential of the cable stitch in attractive, easy-to-knit pieces.
There's a cozy oversized gansey, a smart cardigan with yokes and puff sleeves, a pair of yoke jumpers, a cozy wrap and an attractive range of quick-knit one-skein accessories, all designed with clear instructions and clean finishing details. that characterize Kate's work. The book also includes a collection of stimulating monochrome images, as Tom explores ideas of pattern and structure in the natural world and the built environment. A celebration of collaborative and creative creation, Sark is a book as beautiful as it is useful.
