MITTENS AND GLOVES:
OVER
25 CLASSIC DESIGNS FOR WARM FINGERS AND STYLISH HANDS
by
Annemor Sundbo
This
book contains more than the 25 classic designs for warm
fingers and stylish hands. The author tells her story about
how she came into possession of tons of wool garments scheduled
to be shredded into "shoddy" or recycled wool.
Those garments became her inspiration for this book and
the knitting history she seeks to preserve. The pages on
personal and Norwegian knitting history are both informative
and humorous. The Basic techniques chapter are thorough
and give a Norwegian approach to methods of construction.
The patterns are delightful and colorful. My favorite is
the "Dancing Grannies Mittens". I gotta knit myself
a pair.
