But now celebrated Danish knitting expert Vivian H xbro has brought together diligent research, comprehensive charts, and her own painstaking efforts to reconstruct these carefully-preserved garments to create a unique collection of single-color relief patterns. Knitted, purled, and crossed stitches form hundreds of classic star motifs, edgings, horizontal and vertical pattern panels, and striking \"traveling stitch\" designs--with descriptions, explanations, and instructions now available in English for the first time. \u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e- Learn the history of night sweaters in Denmark, with a rundown of special techniques and regional knitting practices.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e- Dive into a neatly-organized library of 200 charts for motifs of all kinds.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e- Follow step-by-step instructions as you reconstruct traditional Danish sweaters in contemporary sizes.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e- Work traditionally-inspired patterns for a stole, top, tunic, and more.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e- Or use these motifs, edgings, and decorative panels in projects of your own design.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Trafalgar Square","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":45321499738263,"sku":"9781570769245","price":2378.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781570769245.webp?v=1769289932","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/traditional-danish-sweaters-9781570769245","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
