Lorna Knight has been encouraging people to sew for over twenty years through her workshops, books and magazine articles. She continues to teach in her Staffordshire studio where she enjoys passing on hints and tips from both the couture and high-street fashion worlds, enabling her students to create their own garments and projects.
Lorna Knight’s book ‘Overlockers and Overlocking: A Practical
Guide’ (2020) is a comprehensive guide to overlockers and I think
it would definitely appeal to sewers who are new to this machine.
However, the book serves as a useful guide to others who may
already be familiar with an overlocker’s basic functions. The tone
of the book is never patronising or simplistic. Knight’s friendly
introduction is interesting, informative and encouraging.
Overall, I think the book lives up to its title: it is indeed a
practical guide that I would buy for myself or anyone with an
interest in getting more use out of their overlockers. Well done
Lorna Knight, and thank you to The Crowood Press for asking me to
review this book.
