Synopsis

Designed as a finishing touch for both handmade and shop-bought knitwear, this book shows how simple embroidery techniques can create raised, tactile designs on a knitted base. An opening chapter covers the core stitches step by step, before guiding you through more than 25 contemporary motifs, supported by full-size embroidery diagrams, positioning illustrations, and colour and stitch guides.

The collection ranges from graphic shapes such as crosses, squares and hearts to florals and fruit, with practical advice on choosing suitable yarns and achieving clean results. It also includes guidance on adapting colour choices, from bolder combinations to calmer palettes, and suggests using embroidery to mend and refresh worn knitwear. This edition is a translation of the Norwegian title Broderi på Strikk.
