This week I decided that we are going to show off our favorite knitting or crocheting literature, and I’ve allready been inspired by several participants. I strongly suggest that readers of this blog visit the other blogs to see, and to be inspired like me. You can find the list of all the paticipants further down on this side. I’ve also added a few more people to the list, who were late signing up, but from now on I decided to be strict and say that the Exhibitionist Challenge is closed for new participants. Since I’m living in London now, and all my stuff is stored in Norway, I don’t have access to my books. There are several I would like to show and which I truly miss being away. But of course I’ve managed to enlarge my collection while I’ve been here, and I decided to show you two books that I’ve totally fallen in love with. “Finishing Teqhniques for Hand Knitters” by Jane Crowfoot is a wonderful encyclopedia and tutorial of different techniques. “Not Tonight Darling, I’m Knitting” by Betsy Hosegood, doesn’t contain one single pattern, but is filled with fun facts, history and anecdotes about knitting – a pleasure to read when the arms and shoulders need a rest.<\/p>\n

I denne runden av Eksibisjonist har jeg oppfordret alle til \u00e5 vise fram sin favoritt litteratur. Jeg har v\u00e6rt litt rundt og sett p\u00e5 deltakernes blogger, og det er bare s\u00e5 mange b\u00f8ker jeg virkelig kunne tenke meg selv, men \u00f8konomien setter nok en stopper for det. For alle som \u00f8nsker \u00e5 bli inspirert m\u00e5 jeg bare anbefale \u00e5 ta en runde p\u00e5 de forskjellige bloggene, der flyter det over av inspirasjon. Du finner komplett liste over deltakerne lenger ned p\u00e5 denne siden. Jeg har ogs\u00e5 lagt til noen flere som var litt sene med p\u00e5meldinga, men n\u00e5 har jeg bestemt at nok f\u00e5r v\u00e6re nok og at Eksibisjonist er stengt for flere deltakere for denne gang. Som en f\u00f8lge av denne utfordringen har jeg f\u00f8lt et intenst savn etter b\u00f8kene mine hjemme i Norge, fine fine b\u00f8kene. Men jeg har jo selvf\u00f8lgelig klart \u00e5 utvide samlingen mens jeg har v\u00e6rt her ogs\u00e5. B\u00f8kene jeg vil vise frem har etter hvert blitt meg kj\u00e6re, og jeg kikker i dem titt og ofte. “Finishing Techniques for Hand Knitters” av Jane Crowfoot er et flott oppslagsverk over ulike teknikker, med gode bilder og godt forklarte fremgangsm\u00e5ter. tittelen lyger litt for den inneholder teknikker som brukes b\u00e5de i begynnelsen, under og avsluttende p\u00e5 arbeidet. “Not Tonight Darling, I’m Knitting” av Betsy Hosegood er virkelig forn\u00f8yelig lesning. den inneholder ikke et eneste m\u00f8nster, men er full av anekdoter, historie og rariteter fra strikkingens verden. Perfekt n\u00e5r \u00f8mme armer og skuldre trenger en pause.<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
