Koigu Wool Designs has won a devoted worldwide following—not only for its one-of-a-kind hand-painted yarn, but also for founder Maie Landra's indelibly original knitwear designs. Knits from a Painter's Palette chronicles the rich family story behind Koigu, detailing how Maie's Estonian heritage and art training led her to develop a signature style of hand-dyeing yarn, and offering a glimpse of the remote Ontario farm where Maie and daughter Taiu now run the business. The book also showcases more than twenty-five stunning garment patterns using Koigu's modular knitting techniques. The patterns in Knits from a Painter's Palette open the door to the endless world of possibilities that exist with beautifully handpainted Koigu yarn.
