Wilderness Knits for the Home is Linka Neumann's second book, showcasing a stunning collection of homeware knits to make while embracing the Scandinavian spirit and cosying up next to a warm fire. After the success of Wilderness Knits, with its cosy jumpers and cardigans set against the backdrop of the Norwegian landscape, Linka brings us gorgeous wall hangings, cushions, blankets (including for your dog!) and more. Once again, set in the stunning Norwegian countryside, the book inspires you to knit these beautiful creations and embrace the aesthetic of the Scandinavian wilderness. As ever, Linka uses her environment to inspire her as well as animals from the snowy north - with dogs, orcas, polar bears and reindeers finding their way into her designs. If making jumpers and cardigans with Scandi-style yokes feels too complicated for you, these simpler shapes of squares and rectangles will give you the confidence to make your own creations with similar designs. Including 27 projects - all with knitting diagrams and inspirational photography - you will be knitting presents for all your friends and family as well as for your own home in no time. Gold title * There are very few knitting books that show contemporary Scandinavian knitting for interiors. Linka transforms her much-loved designs from her jumpers and cardigans to items to decorate the home.


* Knitting is enjoying a renaissance, with the number of people knitting up 400% over the lockdown periods and the trend continues. It even has health benefits, which link knitting to improving concentration and reducing stress and anxiety. * Knitting is seen as a 'practice that builds community, healing and even activism, all signs point to knitting only growing in popularity in the coming years' (BBC) - offering an eco-conscious, anti-fast fashion sentiment that means you can knit these projects and keep them forever.
