    Theme: Art Nouveau

    12 knitwear patterns with intentional, intricate details, joyful, layerable, exuberant in their exploration of Art Nouveau and yet grounded so you can wear them every day.

    Let’s wander the streets of Brussels and Paris, searching for the hidden architectural Art Nouveau gems – houses, doors, windows, street lamps. Let’s explore Berlin’s Jugendstil tile art, marvelling at the colors and shapes taking form.

    Let’s get lost in the work of water color artists, glass blowers, jewellers, embroidery artists, and myriads more, who dive into the shapes and curves of plants and flowers, moving, flowing, mirroring.

    Please note: This is a preorder. Preorders will ship out in the week starting August 26; digital preorders will be delivered to your email inbox during the same week.

    Yes, we do print sustainably.

    We print on 100% recycled paper – and we are super proud to have found one that lets our photos and patterns shine!

    They're crisp and true to their original colors. The secret? Our awesome printer, Königsdruck Berlin (local to us, yay!)

    They work with an LED-offset printing machine that dries the ink right after it's applied to the paper. That way, it can't sink in and the colors stay as glowy and beautiful as possible.

    The best part though? The machine is completely climate-neutral.

    We're the ones who care.

    We started Making Stories because we deeply believe in the power of two things: sustainability and knitting.

    Stitching sustainability into every aspect of life (and business) can not only help us save this beautiful planet, but also lead a more fulfilling life.

    That being said, we believe sustainability looks different for everyone. Finding what exactly it means for you and making decisions that reflect that in your daily life is incredibly empowering.

    We're here to help you with that in your favorite pastime, knitting.

    Amazing

    Loved this issue. Even my Mum - who is not a knitter - enjoyed it.

    Wonderful new collection from Making Stories

    What a great collection of pattern designs! They are inspiring, and I’m currently debating which one to try my hand with. The layout is beautifully done, making it easy to find the different patterns just by leafing through. The instruction section at the end is also well designed, with all the abbreviations in one place, along with the measurement schematics. Congratulations on a lovely job!

    Toll das es noch Zeitschriften gibt, ich liebe es etwas in der Hand zu haben und durchblättern zu können. Gedruckt ist schon etwas Besondres :)
