    Hiberknitting 2 by Stephen West

    • Winter welcomes cozy dark days when the temperature drops and the light fades away. These deep winter months invite hours of Hiberknitting with a hot drink and colourful sweaters and blankets to stay warm.

      Hiberknitting Volume 2 from Stephen West is a collection of seven new patterns for DK and Worsted weight yarn: 
      Two shawls - the designs for Stephen's 2021 Hiberknitalong KAL, along with two hats, a sweater, a cowl, and a blanket make up this cozy collection.

      West has again collaborated with German visual artist Stefan Gunnesch to reimagine the knitwear of Hiberknitting in mixed-media collage, opening the book with a gallery of multi-dimensional images that give Westknits fans a peep into Stephen's knitted fantasy.

      Patterns in the Hiberknitting Volume 2 collection:
      Cabled Trellis Shawl
      Cabled Trellis Cowl
      Cabled Trellis Hat
      Spiraling Cables Triangle
      Fantastich Sweater
      Fantastitch Hat
      Fantastitch Blanket

    • Stephen West was born and raised in Tulsa, Oklahoma. He studied dance at the University of Illinois where he encountered his first yarn store, Klose Knit in Urbana, IL. The creative atmosphere of that local shop spurred Stephen to start designing knitting patterns and he was quickly featured in Knitty’s fall 2009 issue with his Colonnade Shawl. Soon after, he began publishing more patterns and launched a series of pattern books under the brand Westknits.

      He continues to produce pattern books and hosts several online knit alongs each year like the Mystery Shawl Knit Along, Yarn a Long and Westknits Shawl Club. His simple clean designs have now been knitted by thousands of knitters all around the World.

      Stephen West’s shawl designs and innovative colorwork have helped him become a widely recognized and respected designer around the world. Stephen’s designs have been published in Knitty.com, Malabrigo Book 3 and in Jared Flood’s Wool People. He also self-publishes his own series of popular knitting books including his new collection of 13 popular Westknits designs ‘Westknits Bestknits’.

      Stephen has taught highly popular workshops at yarn shops throughout the United States as well as internationally in Iceland, Scandinavia, Italy, France, Germany, The Netherlands and The UK.
