Great little book on the history of production knitting in Cornwall, and an attempt to capture the regional patterns and methods of knitting fisherman's guernseys before they were lost from living memory. Has basic pattern instructions for two different regional guernseys in the back, plus several stitch patterns that were traditionally used in Cornwall.

The book assumes an intermediate knitting knowledge - the instructions are fairly basic - but if you've knit a jumper before and are willing show more to do some maths and figuring out, it's quite doable. show less
