From the Stitch Description: Here’s Arachne herself, the great-grandmother of all of the world’s spinners and weavers, and still one of the best of them. Who among us can match her skill?

What’s that - you don’t think she’s very pretty? Well, never mind. The pattern techniques that make her in yarn (as well as her busy real-life children in your garden) have much to teach you. As twist-stitch patterns, this one is fairly complex. It has been chosen deliberately as an example to show you almost every kind of knitting operation that you might encounter in a twist-stitch design.
