"Excellent book! I love reading the history behind each pattern and the region it originated from. The patterns are great! I have already cast on a pair of mittens and am sure I'll be making many many more!"
"I only knit Norwegian mittens, of course, and this book had a couple of patterns that weren't Selbu. Then it also had a pattern for knitting little Christmas tree ornament mittens which a thought was a cute idea. Maybe a neighborhood gift idea for next Christmas?"
"Lewandowski includes mittens from a large range of folk traditions. Some of the particularly interesting techniques demonstrated are the Eastern Setup (cast-on) also known as Turkish Cast-on (apparently viewable on YouTube) which one of my knitting group members swears by as being particularly useful in knitting socks and gloves from toe up, finger-tips down; Plaited Edging, and knitting lined mittens."
