Arctic Knits is a modern guide to knitted life in the far north.
Weichien Chan lives in Iqaluit, which is known for its ice-capped mountains and tundra valleys and cold winters.
Combining Weichien's love for the outdoors and knitting, this book presents patterns for cozy sweaters, hats and more that will keep you warm and dry, no matter how far north you travel.
Simple, clean shapes ensure that pattern and color are at the forefront, creating modern yet timeless designs. Each project follows a pattern with a mitten, hat and scarf variation for a whole winter collection of accessories.
All the patterns are gender neutral and size inclusive with expert tips on finishing, as well as advice on colour and selecting sustainable yarns, through inspirational photography, Arctic Knits offers a window on life in the Arctic archipelago.
