Reviews
The Komi Republic is situated some 600 miles northeast of Moscow, though the Komi language is more related to Finnish and Estonian than to Russian. This book is not a scholarly exploration of Komi knitting traditions but rather a guide to 36 mitten patterns employing the simple geometric designs used by the Komi in their knitting. Most are two-color patterns with ribbed cuff, thumb gusset, and a tapered top. Easy-to-read black-and-white charts and clearly written instructions featuring full-color hand-sized photos of each mitten make this a good beginning mitten book. Patterns call for fingering and sport-weight yarn, though Schurch provides enough information (yarn yardage and weight) to make substitution easy. Highly recommended for public libraries and textile collections where demand warrants.
