DESIGN: BJÖRG PJETURSDÓTTIR

COLOURING BOOK
Included in this pattern is a colouring book for the design BP 05 RENDUR leggings. Children can visualise their wishes for the look of their BP 05 leggings. The colouring book allows the knitters, the creator’s creativity to be free and play with colours, surfaces, stripes.

METHOD
The leggings are worked inside-out, in the round from the waist down. Knit stitches on the inside leg form a pattern. The de- creases reduce the number of knit stitches. A loose cast on is necessary to ensure that the waist is not too tight.

I have admired Björg Pjetursdóttir’s project RENDUR for a long time. She designed a series of patterns with the purpose to make use of leftover yarns.

I became captivated by these handmade, colourful garments, and in 2016 the dream of presenting Björgs patterns in einrúm yarn came true for me. We began working on the project of implementing and adjusting the patterns to the einrúm yarn and giving a hint on how one might use leftover yarn. The patterns allow the creator’s creativity to be free and play with colours, surfaces, stripes.
