Knitwear from Iceland for the whole family

Knitting magic from the far north: Stroff Knitting finally available in German. Scandinavian simplicity, but with a twist and inspired by current fashion trends: Sjöfn Kristjánsdóttir's trademark is simple knitting patterns with loving details. This quickly made the Icelandic knitter a superstar in her homeland. In this book, she has brought together the most popular knitting ideas from her Stroff Knitting label. The result is a collection for the whole family: knitting patterns for sweaters as well as instructions for cardigans, vests, and accessories. Many models are suitable for both adults and children, so nothing stands in the way of a matching knitwear look.

  • Scandinavian knitting for the whole family: 35 trendy designs for all ages
  • Sweet knitting for the little ones: knitting baby clothes from overalls to hats
  • For every level: knitting ideas for beginners, advanced and professionals
  • Explained step by step: All instructions in understandable language
  • Compact introductory section on the most important knitting techniques

Nordic knitting made easy: Simple knitting instructions for quick success. Knitting books are often written in very concise, formulaic language. This discourages beginners in particular from attempting more challenging projects. Sjöfn Kristjánsdóttir emphasizes that her knitting patterns can be easily replicated by anyone. Therefore, she describes all the steps in detail and in easy-to-understand language. Tricky techniques are illustrated with photos. This allows the delicate lace patterns and elegant cables to be worked even without much prior knowledge. The perfect knitting pattern book for anyone who wants to knit in a relaxed manner!

About the author - Sjöfn Kristjánsdóttir

Sjöfn Kristjánsdóttir was born in Iceland and lives in Reykjavík with her husband and three children. She studied education and pedagogy, but has always felt drawn to creativity. In 2017, she founded her label Stroff Knitting, under which she designs knitting patterns. At the beginning of 2020, she opened her own Stroff Knitting shop in Reykjavík, where she sells yarn and patterns.

Leonie Karn, a native German, now lives in Kópavogur with her husband and two children. After losing her job in the tourism industry there due to the coronavirus pandemic, she quickly approached her favorite label, Stroff Knitting, to ask if they would be interested in translating the patterns into German. They were interested, and today Leonie manages the label's German shop. She oversaw the entire German edition of "Schnell gestrickt für Groß und Klein" (Quickly Knitted for Big and Small).
