Summary, etc.:

Thick, wooly knits represent comfort and cosiness, but these handmade designs also represent an authenticity and style that has stood the test of time. As a Norwegian, being outdoors is an important part of Linka Neumann's life and she wanted to create sweaters that keep you warm and dry, no matter what the weather is like - her wilderness knits have been used by adventurers across the planet, from Canada to Mount Everest. There are 23 different projects - from jumpers cardigans and headbands - all showcased in a stunning Norwegian landscape. These knits chime in with the eco-conscious, anti-fast fashion sentiment that is so prevalent - they will literally last you a lifetime of adventuring!
