Threads of Memory – Claudia Quintanilla

Book in English.

A grandmother's garden, a polka-dot dress, a bedtime poem, a beloved novel, a song… In Threads of Memory – Knitting with Meaning, Claudia Quintanilla starts each design from a memory. A book about how memory shapes what we make, and what knitting gives back: holding joys close and getting through harder times, stitch by stitch.

Each of the 18 designs explores a different construction and technique: lace, cables, beading, embroidery, Swiss darning… Plenty of variety, and new skills to pick up along the way. Photographed mostly in Lucerne, the book makes for a gentle journey.
