Maja's Swedish Mittens: Over 35 Imaginative Patterns to Knit

Scandinavian-inspired designs for gorgeous hand-knit mittens.

Maja Karlsson, Swedish knit designer and author of the popular Traditional Swedish Knitting Patterns, is back with over 30 patterns for mittens of all kinds-gusseted, cuffed, ribbed, flip-top, and more, plus a handful of half-gloves and wrist warmers-with unique designs rooted in distinctly Swedish stories, landscapes, and wildlife, to create the perfect collection for anyone looking to master the art of knitting Scandinavian mittens.

• Choose a beautifully intricate classic Swedish motif, or fun and fancy butterflies.

• Work in thick, cozy stranded knitting-or try your hand at lighter, lacier mittens in a single color.

• Follow easy-to-read hand-drawn charts, with gorgeous full-color photos of each pair for reference.

• Pick from among patterns suited for varying skill levels, with a section with tips and explanations included to help the less experienced find their way.
