Head to toe

"In *Head to Toe*, nationally known designer Hélène Rush turns her creative talents from sweaters to accessories. The result is an eye-catching collection of knitwear for children, infants, and adults, with a special emphasis on Maine and country themes. Now you can outfit your family literally from head to toe in these warm hats, scarves, mittens and gloves, socks, and slippers. Favorite Maine designs such as Blueberries, Pine Trees, and Puffins are back, along with such charming new motifs as Country Geese and Crayon Kids. Two bright new Christmas stockings and a bold State of Maine Pillow and Afghan set round out this one-of-a-kind collection. Hélène Rush's designs are well-known to knitters across the United States and Canada, thanks to her three previous books: *Maine Woods Woolies*, *More Maine Sweaters*, and (with Rachel Emmons) *Sweaters by Hand*. Her patterns have also been published in *Better Homes & Gardens*, *McCall's Needlework and Crafts*, *Woman's Day*, *Annie's Attic*, *The Workbasket*, and other knitwear publications. In addition, Ms. Rush creates exclusive designs for L.L. Bean Co. and Simplicity Co. She and her family live in Windham, Maine.
