The first collaborative collection from twins Kiyomi and Sachiko Burgin, two talented designers who fuse unique and contemporary design details with classic knitwear styles. Moon and Turtle contains nine knit designs (4 garments, 5 accessories) that showcase an edgy urban aesthetic, reflecting the twins’ life.

Much like Kiyomi and Sachiko themselves, Moon and Turtle is truly synergistic. The duality associated with identical twins is thoughtfully and intelligently embedded into every aspect of the book. From the designs to the authors’ musings to the title of the book itself, there’s a quiet harmony in the idea that two things or people can be visually similar but also considerably distinct.

The patterns are gender-neutral, graded up to a 62” chest, and contain body and sleeve length adjustments in the hope that this book can be enjoyed by many knitters for years to come. Playful colorwork, paired with simply constructed garments, makes Moon and Turtle a fabulous addition to your library. Kiyomi and Sachiko’s sisterly affection for one another is clear and shines through their words and designs.
