"A sourcebook for multi-strand handknitting."

Immersive, informative, and incredibly intriguing, Making Marls: A Sourcebook for Multistrand Knitting is a deep, fascinating dive into knitting with multiple strands of yarn in multiple colors.

This book is at once a reference of handknit marls, a guide to working with many colors, and a collection of over 30 patterns. Writer, knitter, and designer Cecelia Campochiaro hopes you use this book as a starting point for inventing your own colorways, fabrics, and textures.

With a little bit of math, a soupçon of history, a comprehensive exploration of color theory, and profiles of artists and designers making waves in the world of marled textiles, this book is a pleasure to read. And with its full color photography, diagrams, and guiding graphics, it teaches us so much!

Cecelia Campochiaro is a knitter who lives and works in Silicon Valley—she’s also the author of Sequence Knitting, another of our favorite knitting reference books. She grew up in a family of artists and has been knitting since the age of 12.
