Revisit the earliest traces of knitting whose origins lie in the basic human need for clothing for protection against the elements, find out useful, the not-so-useful,the historical, the humourous and how the universal craft brings out optimism in human beings from knitting for soldiers comforts during conflict to knitting graffitti or yarn-bombing.

Knits & Pieces has a sharp focus on today's popular culture. The 21st Century knitting revival led by bloggers, podcasts, celebrities and social media connects enthusiasts around the world and the wider availability of natural and exotic fibres combines with the general "handmade revolution" and interest in DIY crafts to create a truly international knitting community with online and social networking site Ravelry having over 6 million users. Complete with some iconic patterns this is a must have for anyone with an interest in the craft.
