Knitted Kalevala

 

Stories told through stitches…

What does knitted folk poetry look like? How can a sweater be both a garment and a story?

Knitted Kalevala by Jenna Kostet includes 18 knitting patterns – sweaters, cardigans, and accessories – inspired by Kalevala. Considered a national epic in Finland, Kalevala contains old poems full of Baltic-Finnic mythology, ancient symbols, mythical creatures, and nature. These as well as other Finnish, Scandinavian, and Baltic influences can be seen in the decorative colorwork patterns of the designs.

Pre-Order now for November delivery!

All of the designs are knitted in one piece and the colorwork only uses two colors at the same time, making them accessible to all levels of knitters and a wonderful introduction to this technique. The patterns use a variety of lighter and heavier yarns and include several options for suitable yarns.

Jenna Kostet (@ihtiriekkoknits) is a writer and a knitwear designer known for enchanting patterns, such as the Suolaulu Sweater which has been made by thousands of knitters around the world. She has studied ethnology and folkloristics and has published numerous historical novels and children’s books in Finland. In her knitwear designs, Jenna places importance on the stories, the continuation of traditions, and the joy of creativity.

Join the tradition with your own piece from this gorgeous new book hardcover from the publishers at Laine. You’ll enjoy every page and project this winter, and it’s a great gift for your favorite knitter as well!
