In the Author's Words....
"This book offers a bit of Estonia to knitters, not only knitting lore, but history and tradition as well. I've tried to share some of what I feel about this place and people and also to offer patterns to knit that are wearable in our time yet with a link to the past. I believe that it is important for knitters to know their roots, so to speak, to understand something about the landscape and the culture that created the environment for designs to evolve, to have a sense of where the inspiration originated."
(pg 6)
