K (Knit) - Helga Isager

The book ‘K (Knit) presents 10 different knitwear patterns for women. The knitting techniques presented are simple and accessible for beginners, as well as knitters with little experience. The designs encourage mixing colors and qualities, in order to create texture and mélange effect. All styles are designed in classic and simple cuts to ensure a good fit.
The patterns are accompanied by a knit-sample, true to size. Begin by knitting the sample, to check gauge and test the technique. In the back of the book you will find further instructions and drawings.
The book is 112 pages, with 10 knitting patterns to a cardigan, a sweater, a scarf, a beanie and light blouses with short and long sleeves.
At Önling all yarn kits for ‘K (knit)’ are available here. Choose between original colors or other carefully selected color combinations. Please notice the yarn kits don’t include patterns, which are bought separately in the book.
Wool can last for years, but it requires good care. Washing is tough on your woolen garments and in general wool needs to be washed much less than other materials as it has a self-cleaning effect. Often it is enough to hang your woolen sweater / garment outside in the humid weather or bring it with you into the bathroom, when you take a long, hot shower - the steam will often be enough to freshen it up it and remove any unwanted odors.
Specifically for knitwear knitted in Önling's Everyday Kit
Neither Önling No 12 nor No 13, is pre-washed when you receive it on cones. You get the best result if you soak your finished knitted garment in lukewarm water for approx. 2 hours. Then wash the garment as you would otherwise with washing detergent for wool, either by hand or on a wool program in your washing machine. Dry it by laying it flat.
Specifically for knitwear knitted in Önling's Silk kit
As the Silk Kit from Önling contains 3 different qualities (linen, wool and silk), we recommend that you always wash your silk sweater / garment by hand, to avoid it changing shape or appearance during wash. The three qualities will react differently to water, temperatures, etc. Önling can not take responsibility for the result if you wash your silk sweater in the washing machine. Your garment made from the silk kit should NOT be spun or tumble dried. Instead, dry it by laying it flat.
