Helle Siggerud has sought inspiration from the phases of life, designing beautiful, practical, well-fitting clothes. The book is divided into six stages: The Arrival of the Stork, Childhood, From Child to Adult, Everyday Life, Queen for a Day, and The Road Ahead. Most of the clothing is for women, although there are also some lovely designs for children, men and dogs. The book contains more than 30 knitting designs, including jackets, sweaters, waistcoats, shawls and mittens, together with sewing instructions for some of the clothing.
