Translated by Carol Huebscher Rhoades. (Author's name also appeadrs as Annemor Sundbø )
In the Author's Words.....
"In this book, I would like to tell the story of traditional culture's heritage and its place in society and about what was happening in folk culture during the time the art of knitting took root. From there, I would like to trace those lines over to our time
.I have not approaced the material in a scientific or academic manner. Instead, I have wound myself back and forth in history and the art of knitting, to pull out threads in order to make visible a little of what knitting has meant for women, home, ecomony, and society."(pg 5)
Includes traditional knitting patterns.
Winner of Southern Norway's Literature Prize in 2006.
