| book description |

A book for anyone who craves making something with their hands. SlÃ¶jd is Swedish for handicrafts. But itâ€™s so much more than making things with your hands. In Sweden, slÃ¶jd is a compulsory subject taught to all schoolchildren. From a young age, they work with textiles and wood not only to develop their creativity, but also to learn fine motor skills and problem solving â€“ often leading to a lifelong love and appreciation of crafts. In her new book, Kerstin NeumÃ¼ller introduces the concept of slÃ¶jd through 18 wood and textile projects. Here's everything from learning how to sew a cap, dye yarn with birch leaves, carve a peg rail, sew a patchwork quilt and mend your jeans. The projects rarely require any big purchases or unusual tools, and you will be guided with clear step-by-step instructions, pictures and illustrations. With the attitude â€˜if you think itâ€™s good, itâ€™s goodâ€™, Kerstin leaves a lot of room for your own creativity to flourish, while she also helps you avoid the worst pitfalls. This book is suitable both for beginners itching to get started and for those who already know that handicrafts are the most enjoyable hobby you can have!
