Knots, Fur and TurkeyWork



This week, I was helping a customer choose a stitch for a Santa's hat. She had a stitch guide but wasn't wild about the stitch. Together, we used Meredith Barnhill Willett and Beth Robertson's Knots, Fur and TurkeyWork book. This is a great reference book that should be in every stitcher's library. It has wonderful illustrations including color photos.

From this book, we were able to experiment with a couple of stitches and chose the Through the Loop Turkey Work.

It's always a pleasure to go back to favorite books and remember why they are favorites!
