Working with Wool: A Coast Salish Legacy and the Cowichan Sweater by Sylvia Olsen
5.0
Really enjoyed this book. Not only was it a history of the cowichan sweater of BC but it gave so much insight into the way the craft developed, its influences and it was a good reflection on the culture and the impact of the settlers on the Indigenous population. Well researched and written, including personal anecdotes.
I bought this book at a used book shop in Ontario the last time I was there. It had taken me a long time to get started on the book and then to.finish it, but it is really worth the wait.
