About the authors
Tessa Lorant Warburg lives in England with her elder son, his Thai wife and their three lively children - and it works!
Tessa worked in the US for a couple of years, in New York City and Madison, Wisconsin. Then she married an Englishman, an author who encouraged her to start writing. She wrote a series of unexpectedly popular books about her hobby of knitting, even patented two knitting aids. She's featured as one of a handful of knitters in Richard Rutt’s A History of Hand Knitting.
After her husband died of cancer Tessa wrote, at his request, her first non-knitting book, A Voice at Twilight. This takes a look, not always solemn, at the experience of living – and dying – with the Big C. The book won the Oddfellows Social Concern Award and, as family members kept telling her how like her husband the book sounded, she thought she'd try writing fiction.
Tessa has now published six suspense novels and a family saga – a trilogy – set in North Germany and based on her mother’s family.
And she’s busy writing more books, both fiction and non-fiction.

5.0 out of 5 stars Knitted Afghan Squares.
Fast delivery. This is an interesting book. I'm always on the outlook for different kinds of knitted squares. The Victorian Era has some interesting ones but they can be hard to get.

1.0 out of 5 stars Big Disappointment
I was so excited to see this book on counterpanes. Then I opened it. This is only a photocopy of the original book. On my Kindle Fire the print is so small that is it nearly impossible to read. Could have been a wonderful find, but not in the current edition.
