Poems in masks - Solveig Hisdal, mod. 156

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 156 is knitted in Ash Ullgarn (formerly Hifa 2). The yarn package contains a pattern and enough yarn for the largest size.
Inspired by bunad life from Eggedal. Both pattern and colors aroused interest and have been tried to be reproduced as closely as possible in this jacket.
