Cultivate: Knitting the Beauty of Nature
- Description
Cultivate: Knitting the Beauty of Nature is a meditative journey into the poetry of everyday life, told through stitches. This stunning collaboration between artist and designer Dee Hardwicke and Laine Publishing’s Jonna Helin features 20 timeless patterns, including delicate nature-inspired scarves, elegant sweaters, and flowing dresses that reflect the beauty of the natural world.
From Dee’s signature botanical motifs drawn from her sketchbooks of British gardens and landscapes to Jonna’s simple yet refined silhouettes, Cultivate encourages knitters to pause, observe, and create with intention. Each piece invites you to slow down and draw creative nourishment from nature’s textures, colors, and rhythms.
This is more than a knitting book , it’s an invitation to cultivate stillness, simplicity, and inspiration in every row.
