Niina Kaakkurivaara Pientä ja lämpöistä - Neulekirja käsineistä ja myssyistä

The book Little and Warm delves into the world of warming accessories. The book has clear knitting instructions for about twenty different hats and the same number of different instructions for mittens and gloves. The patterns include easy patterns for beginners as well as more challenging instructions for advanced knitters.

The patterns use a variety of knitting techniques; surface knits, braids and embroidery. The book has enough to knit for more winters!

Niina Kaakkurivaara:
“I graduated from the Kuopio Academy of Arts and Crafts in 1998 as a textile designer with a major in fabric weaving and a minor in knitwear. For a couple of years I designed and manufactured woven interior textiles in my own company, but for the last 18 years I have worked at Tekstiiliteollisuus Oy as a designer and in all other tasks, eventually ending up as an entrepreneur again. I have been full of knitting and knitting all the way through my work, and in addition to my day job, I design knitwear for my own tea brand, handicraft magazines and now for the first time for my own knitting book. ”
