A collection of bright, bold and beautiful knitting patterns based
on Honsestrikk, a Danish knitting movement from the 1970s which
broke away from traditional knitting rules. Honsestrikk, which
loosely translates as 'chicken stitch' was influenced by the
radical social and political movements of the time, including the
women's rights movement, and this can be seen in the personal and
political messages of the some of the pattern designs. Instead of
the more traditional fair isle colourwork techniques, Honsestrikk
knitting featured political messages and motifs, colours clashed
and borders butted up against each other in a riot of colour and
pattern. Honsestrikk is about knitting in a freer style so you have
the freedom to express yourself and create truly unique,
personalized garments and accessories. Designer Anna Bauer has been
inspired by the Honsestrikk movement to create this collection of
basic designs and patterns so you can choose your own combinations
and create and knit your own free, radical knits.
