€50.00 (In Stock)

The book A KNITTING LIFE 3 – TOKYO TVERSTED is the third volume in a series of three, in which Marianne Isager tells the story of her life dedicated to knitting over five decades.

Marianne writes in the book's preface:
"For my Confirmation, my uncle Niels gave me two beautiful Japanese woodcuts. This gift awakened my interest in Japanese art and, later, when Japanese designers entered the world of Western fashion, my curiosity for this fascinating country grew. In 2001 I met my husband, Nels, who at the time was living and working in Tokyo; it was the beginning of 15 years of commuting between Japan and Denmark, but also the start of many enriching experiences.

My knitting work is always inspired by what surrounds me, by everyday life experiences and by travel. My long stays in Japan became an important source of inspiration. This book is about my life in Japan and what inspired me on this journey."

With 20 knitting patterns for sweaters and cardigans, you will discover designs full of elegance, with polka dot, herringbone, striped patterns and unique textures with cables and twists. An essential book for those looking to knit with creativity and beauty!
