Having second thoughts does not mean that Woolly has had a change of heart about the ideas she introduced in Woolly Thoughts. These are extra thoughts based on the same principles. You do not need to have read Woolly Thoughts in order to be able to follow the new ideas because the basics are briefly repeated at the back of this book. She is still working entirely in garter stitch, using any yarn to make items to fit any size. The pictures elsewhere on this site will give you an idea of what she has been thinking about. There are ten chapters: Contemplations Woolly's thoughts about new ways of using garter stitch, without having to make tension squares or do any complicated calculations Adaptations Plans for three different garments each starting from a handful of squares Foundations The basics Use any yarn for a perfect fit Continuations An introduction to the ideas to be developed later All in garter stitch Elongations Garments from strips and stripes in various directions Conglomerations Jumbles of pieces and how to turn them into a sweater that fits Centralisations Work from the centre out to achieve zig-zags and other effects Transformations Turn squares into waistcoats (vests) and waistcoats into sweaters Innovations Suggestions to help you find new ideas of your own Demonstrations Explanations of techniques, and the mathematics behind some of the ideas This book has 114 pages. It is printed in black and white on A4 size pages with a white PVC coated back and a clear PVC front showing the cover picture underneath. There are many new drawings of Woolly and friends and dozens of diagrams to help you on your way with creating your own designs. For information about how to order this book, click here.
