Double-Knitting Patterns (Peeper)

“Double-knitting” uses two strands of coloured yarn to produce thick, warm, geometrically patterned mittens, socks, and sweaters. In Nova Scotia, favourite designs have been passed down through families from generation to generation and are now part of our folk heritage. This collection of 23 traditional double-knitting patterns is a perennial favourite.

PEEPER books is a Nova Scotia Museum series presenting a variety of subjects in the material culture and natural history of the Maritime Provinces.
