About the Author

She loves to teach and is an avid collector of tricks-of-the-trade and tidbits of information that make knitting easier. She works, plays, knits, and teaches in Charleston, South Carolina. Charlene Schurch, a knitter since before she could read, is fascinated with the historical and technical aspects of knitting. She's the author of numerous books, and her work has been featured in Knitter's, Interweave Knits, and Piecework magazines. In addition to knitting, she's an avid spinner and dyer. She teaches on the national level for guilds, folk schools, and fiber festivals.
