Nordic Knits with Birger Berge

$36.50

Breathe new life into Norwegian tradition with one of Norway's hottest knit designers. Birger Berge is a trained historian and a trend-setting contemporary knitter. He is well known on social media as being deeply passionate about traditional patterns and their origins. Berge learned to knit as a child from his mother and grandmother, and for him handcrafts have become a source of comfort and creative energy, and a well of endless inspiration. Now, he combines his own distinctly modern style, a love of contrasts and dynamic color combinations, and the classic beauty of Norwegian patterning in a collection of gorgeous knitwear designs freshly adapted for an American knitting audience.

This book contains eye-catching and varied knitting projects, including sweaters, cardigans, scarves, hats, mittens, and home decor and accessories. Beautiful full-color photographs, easy-to-read charts - and Birger Berge's characteristic attention to detail and flair for composition, are indulged to the fullest.
