A Collection of Knitting Patterns Inspired by Coastal Landscapes

Embark on a knitting journey through the captivating landscapes of Shetland, the Hebrides, Gotland and Blidö with best-selling author Erika Åberg. This stunning book features 20 timeless patterns inspired by the sea, wind and spirit of each island, perfect for knitters seeking inspiration and a touch of coastal magic.

From the outer Hebrides, whose ‘poetry, history and stories are visible in the landscape‘, to Shetland, ‘an island world of colours, light and patterns‘, discover the joy of creating unique pieces that reflect the essence of these captivating destinations. A treat for knitters and armchair travellers alike, Island Knitting invites you to explore the rugged beauty of these four unique islands: the Scottish islands of Shetland and the Hebrides, and the Swedish islands of Gotland and Blidö.

  • Each chapter begins with an evocative and personal introduction to one of the islands, exploring its history and culture. This is followed by five stunning knitting patterns per chapter.
  • Each of the 20 exquisite hand-knitting patterns, from cosy sweaters and warm socks to stylish shawls, contains detailed pattern instructions and easy-to-follow colour charts.
  • The essential techniques section at the start covers all the key knitting information you need, including tips on increasing and decreasing, working with more than one yarn colour and grafting.
  • Every breed of sheep has its own combination of types of wool and so produces wool with particular properties. For knitters who are interested in the provenance and heritage of the sheep and wool the designs are knitted with, the book also contains a fascinating insight into the islands’ native breeds, desirable properties of wool and an insight into the tradition of knitting in island life.
