What is Norwegian knitting?
Norwegian knitting is continental style worked with a Norwegian purl, and I introduce it through Arne and Carlos with a video of how they knit.
The other day I talked about different knitting styles.

If you haven’t seen their books, or enjoyed their podcast or YouTube channel, you’re missing out.
They became known in the wider knitting world in 2011 with their popular book: 55 Christmas Balls to Knit.
Since then they’ve published many fun knitting books and are beloved for their laid back, relatable style.
