With Knit Big, it will no longer be challenging to find knitting patterns for flattering knit pieces in sizes XL (44) and up to 5XL (52). Author and knitting designer Nina Birkeland has created these patterns to fit perfectly, regardless of size and shape. Knitting larger items takes time, and yarn costs money. Therefore, the book presents 32 models with three different body shapes, straight, A-shape and over-size, so you can easily find the models you know will fit you. Tables help you follow your size throughout the pattern. The book also has a section with general advice and tips on how to easily adjust the model you want to suit your body exactly. In Knit Big there are patterns for sweaters, jackets and vests for everyday wear.

One of Norway’s most famous and beloved knitting designers, Witre Design, has launched her very first collection of knitting patterns for children. The garments are playful and colourful, designed for the everyday life with small children throughout the year. For the summer you can knit dresses and tops, and for the colder months there are patterns for short and long jackets, thick and thin jumpers, and much more. There are also patterns for accessories, such as balaclavas, mittens, scarves, and hats. Most of the patterns are unisex and are therefore suitable for both boys and girls. The patterns are designed for children aged 2 to 12.
