Scandinavian-inspired designs for gorgeous hand-knit mittens.

Maja Karlsson, Swedish knit designer and author of the popular Traditional Swedish Knitting Patterns, is back with over 30 patterns for mittens of all kinds—gusseted, cuffed, ribbed, flip-top, and more, plus a handful of half-gloves and wrist warmers—with unique designs rooted in distinctly Swedish stories, landscapes, and wildlife, to create the perfect collection for anyone looking to master the art of knitting Scandinavian mittens.

• Choose a beautifully intricate classic Swedish motif, or fun and fancy butterflies.
• Work in thick, cozy stranded knitting—or try your hand at lighter, lacier mittens in a single color.
• Follow easy-to-read hand-drawn charts, with gorgeous full-color photos of each pair for reference.
• Pick from among patterns suited for varying skill levels, with a section with tips and explanations included to help the less experienced find their way.

Maja Karlsson lives in the small cozy town of Arvika, Sweden, in a charming house built in the 1920s. At the top is a floral studio where she spends a large part of her day. She is a freelance knitter and designer, writer, blogger, photographer, lecturer, and teacher, and also operates her own online yarn store named Maja Manufaktur.
