The Swedish knitting school is considered almost the most avant-garde in the world, primarily because of its special approach to design, which does not tolerate any banality! This book is no exception. Swedish designer, teacher and bestselling crochet author Maria Gullberg offers the reader a completely new vision of the old as the world of technology - "grandmother's squares"! Looking at these amazing knitted canvases, ultra-modern, fashionable, with the interweaving of ethnic motifs, you don't even immediately understand that these are exactly the very squares that form the basis of knitting from motifs. The book presents both simple and complicated designs, which the author's instructions and schemes will help to embody, as well as several beautiful Scandinavian-style products showing how Gullberg's patterns fit into a modern interior or into clothing design. This truly innovative book will help you expand your horizons and gain invaluable new skills!
