Embroidered Knits

Norwegian title: Broderi på strikk

Create amazing knitted garments and accessories by adding embroidered motifs!

In Embroidered Knits, Diana Loug (@gollestrikk on Instagram) shares exciting embroidery motifs and knitting patterns for adults, as well as her best tips for succeeding with embroidery on knitting garments and accessories.

In Embroidered Knits you’ll learn how to embroider large and small floral motifs, berries and hearts, Nordic and clean motifs – and other distinctive details. Some are colourful, other garments and motifs have more of a muted expression. There is something for everyone in this book, regardless of age. You’ll learn simple techniques mixed with patterns for knitting sweaters, jackets, vests, headbands and hats. You’ll also get tips on which types of yarn are most suitable for the garment you’d like to embroider.

By embroidering knitted garments and accessories you no longer wear, or that perhaps are stained or in need of some patching up, you can extend the lifecycle of your clothes. You’ll also get a completely unique piece of clothing. So get comfortable, have fun and create simple embroidery art! Maybe you’re already a knitting addict? With this book you’ll run the risk of becoming infected by the embroidery virus too!
