In its first ever summer issue, Knitscene explores plant fibers, quick and unusual accessories, and great layering garments. Who says people donﾒt knit in the summertime? This is a dynamic time of year, characterized by long days, sun-lit activities, and wild color. We travel, we find time to relax, we spend time in air-conditioning and along the rims of volcanoes. Knitting fits so well into summertimeﾗitﾒs easy to pack; it makes plane and car rides fly by; it fills the idle hours waiting on a picnic blanket for fireworks; itﾒs the very relaxation we seek. Summer knits donﾒt need to stand shyly by while fall knitting looms like the yearﾒs main event. In that vein, this issue is brimming with fabulous must-have knits and need-to-know technical info. Every page is inspiring and lively, while the knitting itself is simple and fun.
