Description
Amimono Knit Collection Spring/summer 2009
- Isager Book Amimono The Map Collection The inspiration for Amimono The Map Collection is aerial photos of landscapes. The booklet contains 10 patterns for women, all knitted in yarn from Isager.
- A book by popular Japanese knitwear designer, Mariko Mikuni, containing 21 items including garments and accessories. Language: Japanese More from this collection.
The inspiration for the patterns derive from garments and crafts from around the turn of the 19th century, before the industrialisation and mass production really began to make inroads in Europe. The booklet contains very light, tight fitting blouses in lace patterns, but also more spacious models with jackets and sweaters in thicker tweed yarns. The collection is kept in natural colours.
Amimono Knit Collection Books
In this book, Helga combines knitting, embroidery and weaving. The book includes 10 patterns for womens’ designs: 1 jacket, 1 cardigan, 1 dress, 4 sweaters, 1 blouse, 1 hat and 1 scarf.
All patterns can stand alone, but by adding embroidery or weaving you can change the look significantly. Embroidery with many strands of yarn can add an almost three-dimensional finish and you can renew your sweater – even long after it is finished – by adding a new colour or by using a completely different material.
The book is rich in beautiful photos and illustrations for embroidery techniques used in book.
