Review: A Wonderful Resource for Scandinavian Knitting and Motifs - This new book by Mary Jane Mucklestone is a must-have for any knitter who wants to incorporate Scandinavian designs into their knitting. The book has sections on Essential Skills which goes over yarn, needles, gauge, casting on, circular knitting, holding the yarn, stranding, weaving, increases and decreases, steeling, correcting mistakes, blocking and finishing, and using color. There is a section of traditional Scandinavian garments such as jackets, sweaters, and mittens from the different countries in the region. There is also a section on using motifs in your knitting. Motifs can be a change in orientation, figurative motifs, or transition motifs. There is next a section on planning your project. Ms. Mucklestone goes over the questions that each knitter should ask themselves before starting a project. These go from the initial measurements to the final design. Most of the book consists of a motif directory with instructions on how to knit each of the photographed motifs in the book. These motifs take up over 100 pages! There are even projects included in this book. There is a pincushion, a pair of traditional mittens, a reindeer hat, and a geometric cowl. At the end of the book there is a section on resources in case you would like to look up further information on the subject of Scandinavian knitting. Overall, this is a very informative and excellent addition to my library.
Review: Essential. Informed & Full of Substance - You know when you go on holiday and rent a 4-seater car with a book directory? Well that's what this feels like. It tells you how to go about; where to retrace pattern steps + tips on colour matching, contrast and yarn selection. Tips I never knew necessary are now brought into perspective : much like checking the rear view mirror, or attaching a strategic stitch markers -- akin to blinker light indication. Reads a treat in medium print! Unlike Amy Herzog's disaster of fine print for a beginner sweater instruction book. This is worlds better. Mary never disappoints. Although this issue is more didactic, less vibrant than {FairIsle Style}. One gets excited just hearing her enthusiasm & wealth of knowledge come through a well-organised text. I'm contemplatively wiser about pattern-yarn pairings, much educated on technique and still learning, still going. This book is a smooth, scenic ride ♡ Sheer delight.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ So GOOD!
*by V***R on August 11, 2023*

I have lately been obsessively knitting patterned mittens & gloves & hats.. Like seriously obsessively. And I bumped into this book while browsing around, looked interesting, added to cart and here we are. I could not possibly be more pleased w/ my purchase. So much more than patterns & motifs & directions.. the book offers a deep dive into the creative process & plenty of inspiration. There are even a few little projects included. You won't regret buying this book if you're serious about stranded knitting.
