‘Knitting from the North’ book signing

Hilary Grant will be signing copies of her new book, Knitting From the North, in The Orcadian Bookshop Gallery, Albert Street, Kirkwall on Thursday evening at 7pm.

In the book, Hilary Grant – who lives in Orkney – has translated her most popular patterns from her luxury Scottish knitwear range into 30 colourful hand-knitting projects – hats, mittens, scarves and jumpers.

Hilary also shares her inspiration behind the patterns, expert tips on finishing, as well as advice on colour and selecting yarns that enhance the lustre of the natural fibres, while inspirational photography provides a window on life at 59 North.
