This is a beautiful book for those interested in knitting traditional Scandinavian sweaters; the historical illustrations are gorgeous, and the modern designs based on them look easy to follow. I haven't tried any yet, I bought this for the knitters in my family; Minnesota is a great place to wear these woolies, but one of them would look great anywhere.
