Nordic Knitting
This beautiful book includes projects from Finland, Denmark, Sweden, Estonia and Norway, and an English translation is included. There are more than 15 projects, including hats, bags, cushions, and slippers.
Note that the book is written in Japanese, but patterns and schematics are included. Crafters who cannot read Japanese but who have some knitting experience are usually able to interpret the instructions without any trouble, and others can use the projects as inspiration for their own creations.
