Scandinavian Sweaters : Over 25 Stunning Patterns to Knit

Striking multicolor patterns with a contemporary Scandinavian feel.

Knit designer Kristin Wiola Ødegård has brought together some of her best-loved original patterns alongside brand-new designs to form a striking and eye-catching selection of sweaters and cardigans, for women and men, featuring her signature attention to detail, skill with unusual color combinations, and distinctly Scandinavian style. Including bonus wrist warmers, a shawl, and two patterns for children’s sweaters, plus an instructional section to smooth the way for knitters new to sweater-making and a “stitch table” to help you adjust sizing, this lovely book is both a rich pattern collection and an indispensable resource for anyone who loves to knit sweaters—or wants to understand how.

Inside, find:

• Over 25 gorgeous patterns in vivid, wearable colors, brimming with Ødegård’s characteristic eye for decorative detail and visual spice
• A knitting tutorial section, with subsections on needles, yarn, gauge, stitches and finishing techniques, and understanding how to adjust sizing for any design (even your own!)
• Designs for the whole family—men’s, women’s, and children’s sweaters and cardigans in multiple sizes, plus a couple bonus accessories
