Summary

From the famous Scandinavian knitting duo Arne & Carlos comes a new book taking the reader on a journey into the colourful and imaginative bird kingdom. Inspired by nature both at home and abroad, from their garden in Tonssen comes the characteristic bullfinch, chickadee and wagtail, to name just three -- but the fun doesn't stop there. Readers can knit cold weather birds with Norwegian traditional patterns, and keep them warm with bird-sized wool caps and scarves; make brilliant birds-of-paradise decorated with embroidery, sequins, and feathers; or create birds featuring vintage Mexican embroidery motifs
