Escape to beautiful, historic Normandy with this issue of Verena Knitting. The gorgeous beaches, charming cityscapes and rich history make this northern region of France the perfect backdrop for the beautiful fall knits from Verena! Inspired by Shetland, Aran and Nordic patterns and designs, these knits feature traditional patterns and contemporary style.

Dance down the beach in perfect harmony with autumn in knits for him and her, and bask in the beautiful fall day. Enjoy the magic of the moment in knits based on striking details - all set against the Normandy shore. Take a stroll (or a swim!) through one of France's famous indoor pools while exploring electrifying contrasts in bold designs. And then fall under the spell of the north amidst grassy windswept cliffs and traditional Fair Isle patterns. Wind through city streets in lovely feminine classics adorned with enchanting cables. And then, for the little ones, perhaps a nap and the sweetest of dreams in a cozy knit sweater or sleep sack?
