Close Knit: 15 Patterns and 45 Techniques from Beginner to Advanced from Europe's Coolest Knitter

Product Information

Knit it out” er bogens mantra – og ærligt fortæller Lærke om at strikke sig igennem egne livskriser og bruge strik som en mental frelser. Kapitel efter kapitel strikker Lærke Bagger sig gennem sorg, fraværet af en far, et dødsfald, en identitetskrise og en rekonstruktion af sit familieliv. Derudover træder hun i karakter som et menneske med en livslang kærlighed til Barbie. Af samme grund indeholder bogen også opskrifter på highend Lærke Bagger-strik til Barbie. Lærke Bagger gør op med forestillingen om det perfekte menneske og den perfekt strikkede sweater. Hun lader fejl indgå i sit strik (og i sit liv) og lader dem stråle og fylde i designet. Just tie knots er også et dogme; Lærke Bagger hæfter ikke ender, men binder i stedet knuder som en del af sit design. Raffineret og elegant strik med perler og den helt særlige brug af scrap yarn kendetegner også Lærke Baggers design.

Known for her exuberant use of color and textures, this young textile artist is rapidly gaining a fanatical worldwide following. In this unique guide, she offers advice for knitters of every level, as well as fifteen basic patterns that can be varied infinitely to suit individual skill sets, tastes, and materials. This is a fun book by a cool young designer. It doesn’t really have extraordinarily original techniques, nor is it suitable for a beginner knitter (knitting a sweater with really big needles is actually very clunky, and best suited for an at least intermediate knitter).
