Observations: Knits and Essays from the Forest is a knitting walk through the forest and the seasons. With a keen eye for the innate wonders of the natural world, Lotta H. Löthgren combines knitwear patterns with hints of the landscape she calls home: a small village in southeastern Sweden, nestled among forests and the lakes. She spends her days there writing, knitting, designing knitwear and hand-dying yarn.
Observations includes nine knitting patterns for durable, wearable clothing and accessories, as well as essays on living close to nature.
“The designs were created in a peaceful conversation with the earth, taking elements from the natural world and translating them into stitches and fabric,” says Lotta.
