Arctic Knitting by Annika Konttaniemi

Fall under the spell of Lapland and its seasons in the form of 20 timeless knitwear designs – from a riot of autumn russets to deep wintry tones, springtime snow that dazzles in the sun and alluring nightless nights of the summer. You are sure to find your new favourite patterns while being whisked to a world of tranquil wooded hills, misty peatlands and snow-covered fells.

The soothing craft is suitable for beginners and advanced knitters alike: make a beanie or hat if after an easier challenge, cast a cosy vest or shawl on those needles, or get creative with stranded knitting. The colour theory section leads readers to find inspiration from the symphony of hues in nature and making use of contrasting colour harmony.

This knitting book and its knitting patterns, designs and colours have been inspired by the northern landscape of Arctic Circle.
