Wilderness Knits for the Great Outdoors

23 vibrant, Scandi-style knitted garments for the whole family - perfect for outdoor adventures in cold climates! Knitted with Norwegian and Icelandic wool fibres to repel water and cold, and featuring designs and colours inspired by the wild north of Norway, this is the ultimate knitting book for outdoor adventurers. The 23 timeless designs feature polar bears, the Arctic sun, Hopi dreamcatchers, snowflakes, sled dogs and falling snow, all inspired by the Scandinavian climate and indigenous people of best-selling author Linka Neumann's native Norway. Choose from: 12 adult sweaters and cardigans that can be adapted with optional raglan sleeves, roll-necks and hoods, in sizes small to XXL; 6 matching children's sweaters for kids aged 1 to 10 years old; 3 cozy beanie hats; 2 sets of frostproof mittens. The patterns are suitable for confident knitters, and each contains full written instructions and colourwork charts. Multiple colourways are shown to inspire your own yarn choices, and advice is given on how to measure yourself correctly to select the right size. Popular knitting designer Linka is dedicated to creating anti-fast fashion sweaters that not only look beautiful, but are robust enough to withstand the toughest of weather. Her wilderness sweaters have kept adventurers warm on trips through forests and up mountains - including a trek to Mount Everest... But even if your own expeditions are a little lower altitude in ambition, you can create your own bespoke garments to last you a lifetime of adventures. A translation of the latest title by best-selling Norwegian knitting author Linka Neumann.
