Amy Herzog’s Ultimate Sweater Book

Herzog subtitles this volume “The Essential Guide of Adventurous Knitters” for her idea is to give you a reference guide to take a pattern and alter it, or to move on to design your own patterns. So, she includes patterns as you can see from my photos, that is not the point of the book.

She begins with the basics on judging a fabric from a swatch, body measurements, and ease (the difference between your body measurements and the sweaters measurements). Then she runs through the basic construction types: drop-shoulder sleeves, raglan sleeves, yoke, and set-in sleeves, explaining how to calculate what to do with your stitches to shape your sweater. Then comes a section on adjustments to figure out how a basic template for a sweater can be made to fit well. Then she has some tips on edgings, pockets, and the like.

To give you courage, she then offers “recipes” that is versions of the basic sweaters she offered calculations for earlier with explanations on what she did to turn them into something more interesting, and then some sweater patterns laid out fully in case you are feeling a big overwhelmed by the design technicalities. The yellow cardigan and the grey henley in the photos are recipes, while the red tunic and the burgundy cardigan are full patterns. In total, there are 8 full patterns and 4 recipes, but also a pullover and cardigan for each of the 4 basic types. In short, a lot to learn from and work with whether you are simply curious about design and tweaking patterns, or have an idea in your head that you want to see reality.

When My Worlds Collide: Fashion and Law

This is Dissent in honor of the Notorious RBG or Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Everyone in legal history knew about her long before she gained fans who gave her that nickname. We knew she had graduated top of her class from Columbia Law School but was unable to get a job as firms would not hire women. We knew she had developed the legal arguments that targeted discrimination on account of sex, and we knew she had argued cases before the US Supreme Court and won almost all of them. And from the recent documentary, we also knew she enjoyed wearing stylish collars, from jabots trimmed with lace to crocheted or beaded numbered over her judicial robes.

So this sweater was inspired by one of those collars and created by Andrea Rangel who lives in Canada, so it is clear RBG’s fame has crossed borders.  Since I collaborated on a project with Justice Ginsburg and admire her greatly,  I hope someday my knitting skills will be up to this.
