Over a dozen Scandi-inspired garments and accessories to make for boys and girls aged 3 to 9.
Norwegian knitting is loved for its combination of practicality, texture and minimalistic patterning. In this brand-new book by best-selling knitwear designer Monica Russel, there are over a dozen Nordic-inspired clothes and accessories for children that blend classic Scandi styling with fun and practicality!
Beginning with a crash course in essential knitting techniques, dive straight into 15 patterns ranging from simple hats and a scarf to mittens, sweaters, dresses, bags and more. Half the patterns are specifically designed for 3- to 6-year olds, and the other half for 7- to 9-year olds, with the tastes of each age group in mind. Every knitted item with colourwork features a chart with corresponding written instructions, and advice is provided on cable knitting effects.
Whether you're knitting for a special occasion, a holiday, or for day-to-day wear, these are time-honoured designs that your little ones will love.
