Knitted Kalevala II

In Knitted Kalevala II, Jenna Kostet continues her exploration of mythology, tradition and storytelling inspired by the Kalevala, Finland’s national epic. Following the success of her first bestselling volume, this sequel invites knitters deeper into a world where folklore and knitwear meet.

The book includes 20 colourwork patterns inspired by poems from the Kalevala. From sweaters and cardigans to cosy accessories, the designs feature a variety of shapes and constructions. The stories behind the poems come to life through colourwork placed at the yoke, hem or sleeves — always worked using only two colours at a time.

An inspiring collection for knitters who enjoy meaningful colourwork rooted in tradition and storytelling.
