For years, Annie Modesitt dreamed about a collection of designs based on iconic works from art history, blending several of her great loves (knitting, history, and art) into one set of finished patterns that anyone could knit and wear.

Drawing inspiration from historic images, Modesitt has created 17 stunning garments that make a statement without becoming costumes. Each piece tells a fascinating story of both political change in the world and garment silhouette and detailing. Join this acclaimed designer for your own world historical tour on two needles!
