Needlework from the Garden
Norwegian title: Håndarbeid fra hagen
This is a cornucopia from the garden of Arne and Carlos!
New this time around is the garter stitch technique, which is easy for everyone to master,
regardless of age. The only requirements are two knitting needles and the ability to complete a knit stitch.
The most beautiful butterflies take shape to become pot rests or seating pads, and inspiration taken from flowers, both in terms of colour and shape, is channelled into simple and some slightly more advanced projects.
You'll meet Magnus the garden mouse, the picnicking hippy girls, and the bees that buzz
around in the trees.
There are also plenty of ideas for lovely big throws to be created from your leftover yarn.
