Our summer issue always comes out at a kind of strange time of year. For instance,
the fi les that make up the issue youre holding in your hands were fi nalized and sent
to a printer in early Marcha decidedly un-summery time of year. As Im writing
this, Im actually kind of stuck in my house because northern Colorado received
about two feet of snow in the last 24 hours. Looking at photos of projects designed for
warmer weather is causing an incredible disconnect for me.
That said, I absolutely cannot wait for those summer days to show up. I dont
mind the snow; Im just absolutely enamored with the projects in this issue. Our
Tropical Heatwave story (pages 2435) makes me long for sunny beaches and visits
to rainforestsin fact, Ive already cast on for Noriko Hos Heliconia Wrap because I
have to have my own!
Our Indigo Blues projects (pages 4255) are inspired by ocean blues, pool blues,
and everything in between. Knit mostly in plant-based fi ber yarns, these patterns
will keep you feeling and looking cool all summer long. Be sure to read Leslie Ordals
article, starting on page 56, for an overview of the process of indigo dyeing and its
history with fabric.
Featured designer Heather Zoppettis design collection (pages 1621) includes
three utterly feminine, utterly unique pieces that youll want to cast on immediately.
Sarah Solomon, in the fi rst part of a series on decreases and increases, walks you
through the most basic k2tog, ssk, and centered double-decreasesafter reading her
tutorial on pages 3640, youll be a decreasing pro. Last, but most defi nitely not least,
Kate Atherleys Pattern Play (starting on
page 8) for this issue is a supersized piece
on how to choose the right size to knita

two stitches from the left needle. This will yield the same
result as the method of working ssk explained above.
Another left-leaning decrease common in lace patterns is
skp (slip, knit, pass slipped stitch over). Ssk is more commonly used, as the resulting stitch is slightly more subtle and
more closely mirrors k2tog. However, skp frequently appears
in older patterns and it can also be used in place of ssk if you
fi nd it easier to work or think it yields a pleasing result.
Skp: Slip one stitch knitwise from left to right needle, knit
the next stitch on the left needle, then pass the fi rst stitch
on the right needle (the slipped stitch) over the knitted stitch
and drop it off the needle.

An Introduction to Indigo
Leslie Ordal
uing
...Indigo has an intrig
unlike
dye process that is
almost any other.
Asia. Japan has a strong tradition of indigo dyeing that has
dwindled to about a half-dozen families, but the knowledge
continues to be passed on and maintained. Several groups of
ethnic minorities in China are renowned for their unique use
of indigo, such as the Dong peoples preference for heavily
saturated and stiff indigo-dyed clothing, which is so dark
and shiny it takes on a metallic, almost coppery appearance.
This coppery look is also prized by the Touareg people of
the Sahara, who use mallets to pound indigo pigment into
already-dyed cloth. Indigo also retains a following in Mexico,
especially in Chiapas and Oaxaca. Even with the arrival of
both synthetically produced indigo and other synthetic blue
dyes, numerous small communities such as these keep the
practice of indigo production alive through their own local
Summer16 Knitscene

air will convert the dye back into the recognizable blue of
indigotin. Indigo dyers have come up with a number of original
ways to facilitate this process, which usually takes place in a
large vat that will be used repeatedly to dye cloth and fiber.
Even though indigotin is the pigment present in all
indigo-bearing plants, the exact color of the dye derived from
different plants may vary. This is likely due to the presence
of other compounds present in the plants (such as indirubin,
also called indigo red, or flavonoids that add a yellow tinge),
which can affect the color. Synthetically produced indigo dye
does not have such a great degree of variation, as it is almost
entirely pure indigotin.
Whatever the source, and whatever the tradition, it is hard
to resist the allure of the rich and satisfying blue of indigo.
Whether its the ikat textiles of Asia, the copper-like brilliance of saturated Toaureg cloth, or even your favorite blue
jeans, indigo continues to entrance and inspire. The universality of our love for the color blue will likely keep natural
indigo dyeing alive for generations to come. s
Leslie Ordal writes and works in healthcare research in Toronto,
Canada. She plans to resume blogging about her fiber adventures
soon at www.leslieordal.com.

NEW DIRECTION!
Go beyond top-down or toe-up construction in
New Directions in Sock Knitting. In the eighteen
designs curated by knitting superstar Ann Budd,
youll be treated to projects that range from
traditional sock patterns to more challenging and
innovative sock constructions.
The socks in this collection use a variety of knitting
techniques including double knitting, intarsia in
the round, short-row shaping, mirrored color and
texture patterns, and multidirectional knitting
in both traditional and innovative ways. These
techniques will have you casting on and knitting
your socks from unexpected placesstarting at
the heel or sole or even from side to side! The
instructions are all written in step-by-step detail
that will ensure success, no matter which design
you choose to knit.
Original, innovative, and unique, its New
Directions in Sock Knitting!
