Cables, Diamonds, Herringbone Secrets of Knitting Traditional Fishermen’s Sweaters by Sabine Dominick

British fishermen’s sweaters are some of the most satisfying creations a knitter can make. Their beautify comes from texture and pattern alone, yet they can be as spectacular or as understated as you wish. Traditionally worked in the round, with knitted-in sleeves, they require no sewn seams—a boon for many knitters.

A translation of a book published in Germany in 2004, this book includes knitting patterns for traditional-style Guernsey, Jersey, and Filey fishermen's sweaters, as well as how to adapt the textural motifs from these sweaters to modern garments.
