Poems in masks - Solveig Hisdal, mod. 136

Pattern in Swedish included

For the book Dikt i masker, designer Solveig Hisdal drew inspiration from traditional patterns and techniques from, among other things, textiles, rose-mala chests and cupboards, wallpapers, bunads and cloths. She went to museums and gained knowledge and inspiration, and used this to create a book full of knitted treasures. The book was published in 1997 and is unfortunately not available for sale today.

Model 136 is knitted in Ash wool yarn (formerly Hifa 2). The yarn package contains a pattern and enough yarn for the largest size.
Inspired by flowers painted on the inside of a coffin lid found at Vestvågøy Museum. The jacket has traditional floral patterns in earthy colors on an off-white base.
