Corrina Ferguson is a knitwear designer living in Jacksonville, Florida. Her designs have been featured in Interweave Knits, Knitscene, Twist Collective, Jane Austin Knits, and more magazines. This is her first book.
"The designs just look cooler, not just by using less fabric, but
by using drape and open stitches. The designs are modern and
feminine, with lots of lace and shaping in bold colors. Standouts
for me by season are Winter: Lochlan hoodie; Spring: Coralue tee;
Summer: Junius shawl; Fall: Bayard pullover." --Knitty
"Corrina Ferguson's new book, Warm Days, Cool Knits answers my
questions and more. It is a great resource because it includes 20
patterns in a wide range of projects, fibers, and weights. I was
honestly surprised to learn not everything was a lace weight cotton
or linen!" --Little Acorn Creations
"Warm Days, Cool Knits by Corrina Ferguson is a book filled with
designs to help you and me find great projects to do with these
cotton, bamboo and rayon yarns. I put this book in the same
category as Julie Turjoman's excellent book last year called Knits
that Breathe. I fell in love with both of them. Whether you're
knitting something cool to wear for hot weather or you are of a
certain age with your own personal summer, both these books are
wonderful." --My Central Jersey's "In Stitches" column
"If you're a child of the south--no matter what country--these
pretty patterns are sure to inspire you to start knitting garments
that you can wear throughout the year. Even if you've never knit a
top before, there are some relatively easy ones here, and some of
the shawls are not too difficult either. They're also designed to
be comfortable to knit in any season, with no heavy wools burdening
your lap when you knit in the summer. That's sure to be appealing
to knitters everywhere." --About.com/Knitting
"No matter what the season, Corrina has five projects to knit for
each. The photographs are clear, large and full of detail. Line
drawings in step by step are included for methods called for in the
instructions. Charts are given where needed." --Hartford Knitting
Examiner
"If you're looking for a great knitting pattern book with lovely
wearables, and you love using charts, this one should definitely be
on your list!" --Banana Moon Studio
