The Beloved Patterns knitting magazine 2/2024 brings Aarikka's cherished characters and patterns to life through knitting! The magazine features 21 new knitting patterns, inspired by Aarikka's iconic designs, known for their playful, round wooden jewellery and home decor pieces that have charmed people for decades.
This thick, 124-page magazine in English offers knitting instructions suitable for various skill levels, with patterns ranging from easy to moderately challenging. The recommended yarns are favourites among Finnish knitters, but can also be substituted with your local yarns. The patterns include everything from colourwork socks to sweaters and cardigans to a vest and a bag, and smaller accessories like hats, scarves, a cowl, and mittens. And if you're not a knitter yourself, this magazine makes a fantastic gift for any craft enthusiast!
