Knits from the Thorbjørn Egner universe
Norwegian title: Strikk fra Thorbjørn Egners verden
This book is filled with knitting patterns built on the fantastical universe of Thorbjørn Egner, one of Norway's most beloved children's authors and illustrators.
Knitting designers Pia Marlene Øye and Marte Hasselø have developed 25 patterns based on Thorbjørn Egner's original drawings, so everyone now can knit Climbing Mouse's knitted trousers. In addition to fun sweaters with motifs such Karius and Bactus, you'll find fun accesories such as the hare hat with ears. All recipes are designed around using quality-wool, with a nice, sturdy design that will keep the children warm and happy. The models and techniques vary a little, but most of the patterns are easy enough for knitters of all levels to master. Even beginners - and children - can make the fox scarf.
The book includes 25 patterns from 1-10 years old, and a selection of patterns for adult sizes.
