Let's Knit Caps is a book of recipes for advanced knitters who are looking for new stitches, textures, and ideas to spice up their repertoire and unleash their creativity. The author, Sunita Giri, started knitting as a child in Kathmandu and she hasn't put her needles down since then. She is a dedicated and talented knitter and designer, the kind of knitter that is never without her knitting bag. She founded Winter Project several years ago, making caps, neck warmers, and blankets herself and engaging volunteers to join her efforts to reach as many children as possible, and raising funds to carry out the project. She wrote Let’s Knit Caps in response to many requests, from knitters worldwide who are members of the Winter Project group or read about us on Facebook, asking “how do you make” this cap, neck warmer, or blankets. Her book offers a framework for thinking about designing, and about the way we view and use this ancient and useful art form. Let's Knit Caps offers some step-by-step outlines for making a variety of caps and many ideas for combining textures, stitch patterns, and color blends. While the book is not designed for beginners, knitters of all levels will enjoy encountering her enthusiasm for the craft of knitting and the ways we can use it to enrich our lives and the lives of others.
