The book contains 17 knitting patterns ranging from sweaters and cardigans to accessories. All the designs have been inspired by Anna Johanna’s youth at the turn of the millennium, sprinkling the modern knits with a dash of nostalgia.
“Spend a bit of time with me reminiscing, get lost in your own memories and knit new ones into the stitches on your needles. That is what knits do, after all — carry memories with them.”
17 patterns: 7 sweaters, 5 cardigans, 2 pairs of socks, 1 cowl, 1 pair of mittens and 1 pair of fingerless mitts. (Pattern previews form Laine can be found here)
Patterns for sweaters and cardigans come in 8–12 sizes. All are graded to fit up to a 62" / 158 cm bust at minimum.
