A Knitting Life 3: Tokyo Tversted

A Knitting Life – Tokyo Tversted is the third and final book in the series where Marianne Isager reveals her knitting life through five decades. See also book 1 and book 2.

Marianne writes in the foreword for the book:
“For my Confirmation my Uncle Niels gifted me two beautiful Japanese wood cuts. This present awoke my interest in Japanese art and later, when Japanese fashion designers entered the Western fashion world, my curiosity for this fascinating country grew. In 2001 I met my husband, Nels, who at that time lived and worked in Tokyo; this was the begin­ning of 15 years of commuting between Japan and Denmark but also the beginning of many enriching experiences.

My knitting is always inspired by the things going on around me, expe­riences from daily life and from travels. My long stays in Japan became an important source of inspiration. This book is about my life in Japan and what inspired me on this journey.”

Features 16 new knitting patterns alongside stories from Marianne's life and experiences in Japan.
