    About this series

    Welcome to Book 3 of the FiberFrau Series of knitting patterns. In this book FiberFrau presents four cowl designs for hand knitting. My hope is that you will use these designs, enjoy them, and adapt them to your own style. Cowls make great gifts, since they always fit! Designs include an Elfin Green Cowl (inspired by The Lord of the Rings) and a super-warm tubular cowl. Also included are two designs in the Hogwarts house colors as a tribute to J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter books.

      Welcome to Book 2 of the FiberFrau Series of patterns. Once again FiberFrau presents scarf designs for hand knitting. Two of the three scarves are inspired by the novel, Divergent, by Veronica Roth. A third was inspired by The Hunger Games series by Suzanne Collins. I rarely knit the same thing twice, but I hope you will take these designs, use them, enjoy them, and adapt them to your own tastes. Some of the scarves in this book require more advanced skills than those in Book 1 (Knitted Scarves for Everyone.) The following basic knitting skills are assumed: knit, purl, cast on, cast off, and change colors at the beginning of a row. Each of these designs also includes something special: duplicate stitch embroidery, ribbing, and/or seed stitch. Kimberly Schimmel, the author, graduated magna cum laude from North Carolina Central University with a Master of Library Science degree and serves as librarian at her church. She also earned a Bachelor of Science in Industrial Engineering from Purdue University. The efficiency techniques she learned in engineering school get applied to her needlework projects. Kimberly is a mother of six, a skilled dressmaker, and a prolific knitter. She enjoys writing and reading, learning new craft techniques, designing knitwear and dresses, and making things for family and friends. As a long time resident of North Carolina, she enjoys the mountains, sweet tea, and Cheerwine. A native of Indiana, Kimberly also enjoys corn, auto racing, and basketball

      The biggest and best knitting pattern collection yet from FiberFrau includes scarves, a sparkling cowl collar, and fingerless mittens. Color work and pattern stitches will offer interesting projects for advanced beginners and intermediate knitters, while most projects are simple enough for a confident beginner. Every project was inspired by a book, so fans of the Hunger Games, Divergent, or Lord of the Rings may enjoy some literary knitting. This is a book of patterns for projects, not a tutorial on how to knit, so complete beginners will need to first learn to execute knit and purl stitches, cast on and bind off. Some of the projects, including Gandalf's Mitts and the Fibonacci Scarf, require only those skills.
