Knitting the U.S.A: Fifty Easy-to-Follow Designs for Beautiful Beanies Inspired by Each State in America

Author: Nancy Bates

From the lighthouses of Maine to the pine forests of Washington and the wheat fields of Kansas – knit unique beanies inspired by the beauty of the natural treasures, state symbols, and distinctive landmarks of each state in the union.

Whether it’s a corn maze in Iowa, the manatees of Florida, or the buckeye that shows up on absolutely everything in Ohio, each of the fifty states has manmade and natural landmarks, symbols, and traditions that make it unique. Now you can capture the history and wonders of America with original beanie patterns created by celebrated knitting designer Nancy Bates.

The beanie patterns in this book—one for each of the fifty states in the union—celebrate all aspects of America; the projects range from simple constructions such as the flowers of Hawai'i to more challenging stitch patterns like the waterfalls of Oregon. Clear charts, easy-to-read keys, and thorough instructions help any knitter, beginner or experienced, work up these gratifying projects.

Whether you are knitting a beanie for your favorite person in a faraway state, or knitting one for each state you’ve visited, you will enjoy learning about each state and creating beautiful wearable art that celebrates America the beautiful!
