Nordic Knits with Birger Berge:
Traditional Patterns, Exciting New Looks
Breathe new life into Norwegian tradition with one of Norway's hottest knit designers.
Birger Berge combines his own distinctly modern style, a love of contrasts, dynamic color combinations, and classic Norwegian patterning in this collection of knitwear designs. It contains varied knitting projects, including sweaters, cardigans, scarves, hats, mittens, and home décor and accessories. The garments feature timeless motifs in vivid colors & combinations, with beautiful photography.
The patterns in this book require solid experience in stranded knitting, and sufficient practical knowledge of garment structure. While the translation is accurate, there may be challenges in some of the syntax; we therefore recommend complete reading of all pattern instructions before beginning, and swatching in the given stitch patterns to determine what adjustments need to be made to meet gauge. Some of the patterns are sized in a unisex format, some particular to men or women. Larger garments are given in six sizes, while socks, mittens and hats have limited sizes.
