Minna Hele, a passionate knitter and knitwear designer with roots in Karelian tradition, has turned her attention to her roots and brought the handcrafts, national landscapes and weaving patterns of the past into modern, functional knitwear that everyone can admire.

In the book Karelian Knits, a traditional Finnish pattern meets popular Icelandic wool and soft merino, forming a harmonious whole and durable clothing.

The book contains knitwear for the whole family, men's, children's and women's knitwear, as well as accessories. How about similar Soturi shirts for men from baby to grandfather? Flowerbird shirts to protect the sibling flock? Punapoiminta knitwear for couples instead of windbreakers?

In the book you will find both the Kansallisaarre cross-stitch for beginners and the Raanuraglan, which is challenging even for experienced knitters.

The instructions are suitable for people at different stages of their knitting journey, and the comprehensive instructions will also help you develop your knitting to the next level.

Master of Arts Minna Hele has been knitting all her life. A passionate attitude towards traditional crafts has been passed down through generations of women in her family, and as a knitwear designer, Hele wants to bring Finnish tradition to light in a popular form of knitting.
