You guys know how much I’ve loved some of Helga Isager’s past collections (2012, 2013, 2014), and when the images from her new book, The Artisan, started showing up on the Internet, I knew I was not only going to be saving a ton of them at Ravelry for later, but that I would want to stock this one in the shop. It arrived last night (the English version) and I swear I almost slept with it under my pillow, hoping I could wake up inside of it. The whole thing is incredible, but my top picks are:
TOP: Pearls – an allover diagonal-stitch pullover
BOTTOM LEFT: Birch – a cozy slouchy cocoon cardigan
BOTTOM RIGHT: Twine – a fuzzy little cabled turtleneck
You can see the whole pattern set at Ravelry and pick up a copy of the book at Fringe Supply Co.!
p.s. If you’ve had your eye on the black Field Bag, please be aware it’s now in limited supply, so get it while they last!

Much excitement! I’ve been waiting for the English version for that Birch sweater!
Such beautiful pieces! Time to start queueing! But the shoes that the model is wearing in the Pearls photo are probably going to become my greatest obsession…
I hear you on those shoes.
Loving Pearls! Thanks for sharing!
Birch for sure!
I love the edging stitch on the Birch. Usually, I avoid knitting a sweater with really small needles but theses sweaters might tempt me to try.
dang birch is a beauty
Question: Are the patterns charted or written or both?
There are only a couple that have charts with them, but it looks like at least one of them is also written out. There are some written out that I would have thought would be charted. So it appears to be a mix!
Thanks, Karen!
Love those shoes, if anyone finds them let us know. I have already started on Birch.
Written.
Been a fan of Isager’s ever since her book of classic knits came out. Those diagonal lines are a signature feature of her work.
I think the bed linen is from IKEA so yes, you could almost literally wake up in it.
The first thing I saw and homed in on were the shoes can you imagine the soft leather ? I was always a fan of Isager
Very stylish and looks perfect for summer in to fall knit wear. Have a blast!
