About this product

Product Information

You'll appreciate your favorite Nordic patterns in a new way. Nordic knitting designs have long enchanted the world. What makes their allure and beauty so timeless? The answer is fascinating, and author Annemor Sundb , known as "Norway's Sweater Detective," welcomes you on a wild ride to discover it. She's the foremost expert on the subject of these designs' history and evolution and reveals how the centuries of Norway's culture, prehistory, history, myths, and more have created the patterns we love to knit. More than 800 images take you through the mountains and fjords of Norway with knitting in mind. As Annemor shows us, Norway's knits hold real-life tales of burial customs, royals wearing knits, nation building after the Napoleonic Wars, child labor, female role models and ski fashion, and the sustainability of knitting through history and today. How did folk costumes morph into hiking gear? What messages have the Norwegian myths left in the patterns we knit today? A pattern bank contains dozens of knitting grids for authentic traditional designs, ready for you to continue their amazing journey with a new appreciation.

Reviews
An absolute must read for anyone interested in Scandinavian knitting and textiles . . . the ways that textile creation connects us--geographically, historically, and spiritually. . . . Annemor Sundbø has given the world a truly precious thing., This is a big book . . . I mention this to emphasize the grand scale of Annemor Sundbø's comprehensive and richly illustrated history and analysis of iconic Norwegian sweaters . . . Each chapter is made up of short essays with illustrations (the book contains almost 900 illustrations) . . . For adventurous knitters wanting to create their own Norwegian sweaters, Sundbø provides tables of measurements and stitch counts, graphed pattern designs, and 224 snapshots of individual sweaters . . . Extraordinary.

Worst comic book shipment I've ever received. Item shipped in thin paper mailer. Item came bent and distorted. For the price that was paid $16 more care should have been taken. I've bought $3 books packed way better than this. Worst and horible experience with comic book packaging on ebay. Thanks for taking care of our items that we spend our hard earned money on.... not... review only positive because it arrived on time... and I'm not waiting a week just to mark you on negative.
