ESTONIAN VERSION / EESTI KEELES: "Tagasi Traditsioonide Juurde: Moodsad Eesti Kudumid"

PREORDER will be shipped Late August

Eesti kudumine on seotud töövõtete, kaunistamise ja piirkondlikkusega. Aleks Byrdi raamat „Tagasi traditsioonide juurde – moodsad Eesti kudumid“ on sissejuhatus tänapäevasesse Eesti kudumisse. Raamat sisaldab 19 juhendit labakinnastest kampsuniteni, mis sulanduvad sujuvalt moodsate kudumisstiilidega.

For a small country on the Baltic Sea, Estonia’s tradition and love for handicrafts greatly surpass its size.
Estonian knitting is all about techniques, embellishment and regionality. Each knit tells a story about the knitter and where they live.

Aleks Byrd’s book Traditions Revisited – Modern Estonian Knits is an introduction to Estonian knitting, both traditional and traditional-inspired.

It includes 19 patterns, ranging from mittens to sweaters, that blend seamlessly with modern knitting styles.

Aleks Byrd – whose roots are in Estonia, Canada and the USA – is a knitwear designer based in Bath, UK. In addition to knitwear design, she works as an illustrator and teaches Estonian knitting techniques around the world.

In her designs, tradition and Aleks’ own, graphic style meet. With her book, Aleks wants to make traditional Estonian techniques accessible to everyone. At the same time, she builds a bridge between Estonian knitters and the international knitting community.
