Wool Knits

There’s something special about knitting with wool. The yarn glides beautifully across the needles, and the elasticity of the wool fibers gives the finished garment a distinctive feel and sheen. Sometimes this feeling is even enhanced when a piece of grass appears in the yarn – a gentle reminder of the sheep grazing in summer. Wool yarn provides just the right amount of warmth, breathes well, and rarely needs washing. It feels good in your hands and is a pleasure to work with – addictive in the best possible way! An increasing number of people are discovering the beauty of wool yarns – something that makes knitting designer Anna Sjösvärd’s heart beat a little faster. Swedish wool comes in wonderful qualities; it’s environmentally superior and a joy to knit with.

In Wool Knits sweaters, cardigans, mittens, socks, and shawls are mixed with accessories such as cushion covers, project bags, and a tea cozy. The book offers both large and small projects for experienced knitters as well as beginners and a knitting guide to help with more advanced techniques.
