About this product

Product Information

A colourful, lively and practical book which showcases the variety represented by some of Norway's best knitwear designers. The designers featured in this book have influenced Norwegian hand and commercial knitting during the last fifteen to twenty years. We are proud to present a design book where the designers have had total freedom to create specially designed and unique garments. Included are twenty-two practical designs which show how fantastic and lovely garments can grow from something as simple as needles and skeins of yarn. Handknitting allows and unbounded freedom to create a completely personal expression through colors, embellishments, structure and styling. You would be surprised at how many objects can give birth to creativity: everything from an elegantly worked bridal gown or a postcard to nature's shifting light, grey stones and evenrough logging roads. Norway has always been identified as a knitting nation, and its knitwear is regarded with wonder. Norwegian knitting is associated with traditional patterns and Norwegian motifs, which are readily recognised by the rest of the world. In keeping with tradition, classic Norwegian-spun wool yarns are used in this book.Knitting is the most Norwegian of all crafts, and the skill has been passedfrom mother to daughter. Its is hoped that this book can give inspiration to the subject and that there will be many capable and creative designers in the future

  • Norsk Strikkedesign

    The patterns are lovely, but the size of the pattern and the color in which it is printed make it very difficult to read. I love to do stranded knitting, both Fair Isle and Norwegian types. There doesn't seem to be a lot of floral design in that type of pattern, but this book had many floral designs, and that is why I bought it. I find the size and shape of the sweater patterns very blocky, but I often revise them to fit closer and to a length desired.

  • A beautiful book for serious knitter.

    This is an out-of-print book. Because of that, they can get very expensive in used market. Be careful, there are English and Norwegian versions. Book is beautifully printed with some great design patterns and instructions. But those patterns are not for casual knitters.
