Needlework from the Garden

Arne Nerjordet / Carlos Zachrison

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.

Stitches & Interiors

Tine Solheim

This book will inspire you to create a cosier home, with simple knitting at the core. It's time to put your feet up on the sofa, make yourself comfortable among the cushions and blankets and allow your mind to wander as your knitting takes shape before your eyes, whether intended to be something for the home or to wear. There are ideas for pillows, throws, slippers, shawls, loungewear, coats, waistcoats, etc. The book is divided into three style sections: Nature: Clean, meditative and white, including lovely throws and cushions, big jumpers and jackets and beautiful comfort wear for indoor and outdoor use. Graphic noir: Graphic shapes with focus on prints with textile shades. In this section there are also some patterns to be knitted, featuring clean lines on cardigans, jumpers and ponchos. Abundance: Think along the lines of the Garden of Eden, rich colours, patterns, etc. Angora enters the mix in pops of colour, with some extra focus on knitting here too. Pillows, throws, lovely ponchos, jumpers and jackets are among the treats that make an appearance in this book.
