The Knitted Fabric | Dee Hardwicke

Knit 20 vibrant colourwork projects for you and your home, from renowned British knitwear designer and artist Dee Hardwicke. 

Illustrated throughout with beautiful watercolours and painterly photography, The Knitted Fabric celebrates Dee’s love of the natural world, and shares her fascinating, unique, artistic process for creating her knitwear. 

As Dee explains, “I find the process of knitting very similar to painting, with each stitch being a brushstroke of colour. As stitched loop together, they create a knitted fabric, a kind of narrative of art, of the making process, and of the people and landscapes that inspire me”. 

Brimming with artistic inspiration heightened by extracts from Dee’s stunning sketchbooks, and filled with patterns for gorgeous colourwork garments and joyful pieces for the home, this creative and original book is Peter for confident knitters looking for nature-inspired patterns to knit.
