Charming and elegant knitting patterns for the famous Dorthe Skappel sweater and many other garments including jackets, jerseys, knitted stockings and woollen hats. Every garment in the book has it's story, pictures and user-friendly illustrations of the techniques.

The story began when Dorthe knitted a jersey between Christmas and New Year 2011. Her daughters Mary and Martha liked it immediately and later described it as their favourite garment on Mary's blog and in several magazines. Since then, many New garments have been designed and knitted and the patterns and wool sold on the internet.

Anybody can knit these garments with their very easy patterns.They are light and comfortable to wear – just as favourite clothes should be.

The book is richly and elegantly designed. It expresses warmth and the joy of knitting in a pallet of traditional and elegant colours.
