Piecework magazine



If you have the chance, buy the latest issue of Piecework magazine.
It features the history and techniques of Märta Stina,
a Swedish peasant woman who lived around the time of the latter 1800's.
New patterns are included inspired by her designs.
Also included is an article about two-end knitting.




It was so wonderful for me to get to see some of her coverlets in person at the Museum in Härnösand. Thanks again Carol for suggesting that.
Thank you again Cousin Per Ingemar for setting this up, being so patient with my requests, and thanks to Bengt and Ulrika for making it all possible !!
