Unravelling Canada, paperback ed. Available April 17, 2021.
Unravelling Canada by Sylvia Olsen has developed relationships with Coast Salish knitters and in this book discusses the quintessential garment of Canadian knitting, the bulky and distinctly patterned West Coast cardigan. In the early twentieth century, Indigenous woolworkers on southern Vancouver Island began knitting what are now called Cowichan sweaters, named for the largest of the Coast Salish tribes in the region.
