Plain & Simple: 11 Knits to Wear Every Day
The projects in Pam Allen's Plain & Simple: 11 Knits to Wear Every Day are proof that, with the right yarn, simple shapes and stitches are all that's needed to create essential knits. Worked in Quince & Co.'s worsted weight wool/alpaca Owl yarn, the 11 designs featured in the book cover all manner of plain, simple, and utterly necessary knits including pullovers, cardigans and accessories with details to keep the knitter engaged and the wearer happily warm—a classic collection for the ages.
Pam Allen knitted her first sweater in high school: a stockinette stitch pullover with a crew neck. Somehow she survived the experience and has gone on to knit many more, learning something new about knitting each time. She is the author of several books, was editor of Interweave Knits from 2003-2007, and worked as creative director at Classic Elite Yarns, before launching Quince & Company in 2010. She lives in Portland, Maine.
