ABOUT THE BOOK -
This inspiring new book from the team behind MillaMia knitwear is packed
with projects to take you through the wintertime. As the seasons change
from cool, crisp autumn to the cold and dark of winter, Scandinavians
are particularly good at easing the transition with clothing, interiors
and food that bring warmth and light. Sisters Katarina and Helena Rosen
aim to share some Swedish wonderful traditions, designs and activities
with you - but of course with the signature modern twist that MillaMia
bring to all things knitted. In this book you will find a mix of
knitting projects to see you through the cold season, including stylish
garments and accessories for adults and children, cozy homewares and
unique gifts. Indulge in kitting yourself out for the first fall of
snow, make clothes that the kids can wear for the festive season and
create interior projects that will bring warmth both literally and
visually. You will also find a selection of 'bonus' projects - with a
couple of
favorite festive recipes and some wonderful paper projects
that any yarn enthusiast will enjoy.
ABOUT THE AUTHORS -
MillaMia, run by the two Swedish sisters Katarina and Helena Rosén has
quickly become recognized for its distinctive, modern knitting pattern
designs and high quality yarn. In their new book
Winter Knitting they
share some wonderful Swedish winter traditions, designs and activities
for brining warmth and light to the cold season.
"As children we both had imaginary friends whom we gave names to – names
that we thought were beautiful and grown up. Mine was called Kamilla
which was shortened to Milla and Katarina’s was called Mia. So MillaMia
is really us but in an imaginary and aspirational form!"
MY THOUGHTS -
Wow! Gorgeous knitting pattens! There are lots that I would personally make in here. I love almost everything in this book. All of these patterns are very usable and wearable, very practical!
This is full of beautiful, full-color pictures. The directions look clear and easy to follow.
There are a nice variety of items in here, like sweaters, children's items, pillows, socks, mittens, and so much more. Ranging from beginner patterns to more advanced.
I am looking forward to try some of these!
I might start with this! Isn't it gorgeous?
Or I could make these beautiful pillows!
Or, start with simple candle covers!
I highly recommend this knitting book no matter what your skill level is!
Thank you Netgalley and Pavilion Books for sending me this e-book for my honest review!
