Ultraviolet Knits: Twelve knitting patterns featuring UV-reactive hand-dyed wool yarn

by Evin Bail O'Keeffe, Niall Twamley (Photographer), Michael Harrigan (Editor)

Overview

Did you know certain yarns glow in reaction to ultraviolet light? You may already own some that do. Evin Bail O’Keeffe, author of Bake Knit Sew and award-winning craft blog EvinOK.com, has designed 12 knitting patterns to bring out the best in ultraviolet-reactive yarns. These were inspired by the night’s sky, some from the view from Earth, such as star-gazing from a porch swing, while others pay homage to astronomy. Each works well with bold, speckled, and vibrant yarns as well as semi-solid and neutrals. These accessory designs are excellent for travel knitting.
