WORK | Together with the author Anne Bårdsgård I am designing a new, large book about Selbu mittens. Anne has worked on the material of this book for three years. She has been keen to find and register as many old pattern as possible. In addition, it has been important to find as much knowledge as possible about knitting mittens to create an overview of procedures. The book will contain history and characteristics of a mitten from Selbu, how to knit together with various patterns. Anne has also made an exhibition related to Selbu mittens.
