Nordic Winter Knits

Take on winter with these 25 cozy winter knitting patterns. Knitwear designer Maja Karlsson has created 25 cosy woollen knitting projects to keep you warm throughout winter, whether it's through making or wearing them.Ranging from simpler quick-knit garments, such as mittens, leg warmers, socks and hats, to larger projects for the more experienced knitter, including jumpers, cardigans, shawls and even hot pants, this book is a fun mix of projects sure to brighten up both your wardrobe and winter evenings.Maja is an experienced knitter and pattern maker, and has created easy-to-follow descriptions and diagrams for each project, which are size inclusive and graded according to difficulty.The text is full of Maja's advice, tips and tricks, as well as a 'knitting school' that looks in more detail at some of the steps that require a little extra attention.There are handy guides to many aspects of knitting from the basic, such as casting off, blocking and stitch increases and decreases, to the more advanced, such as the Latvian Braid, invisible seams and even mending your garments.As always with Maja’s books, they are beautifully illustrated with fantastic photography by Helene Pé, bringing life and colour to each project.Simply put, this book makes your fingers itch to start knitting!
