Norwegian Knitting Designs

Annichen Sibbern Bøhn

Back in print, after decades, Norwegian Knitting Designs is a treasure trove of traditional Norwegian knitting charts. Author Annichen Sibbern Bøhn travelled the Norwegian countryside, collected folk patterns that early 20th century modernization was quickly leaving behind, and in 1929, published them in a slim yet vibrant volume that nearly single-handedly saved this tradition from the ragpile of history. The new publication contains all of the charts from Norwegian and English editions, plus two sweater and one cap patterns, in their original form.
