The book Östgötakoftor – Stickat kulturarv från 1940-tal highlights a knitted cultural heritage from the late 1940s in particular. The book contains descriptions of the cardigans with the design typical of the 1940s. There are also several pattern sheets and knitted samples that can inspire you to create your own patterns. The female textile artists who designed the cardigans for Östergötland County Handicrafts Association are also presented. These cardigans are still a clear expression of the core values ​​of handicrafts – good design linked to natural materials and sustainability.
