Elsebeth Lavold's Past into Present collection contains 17 designs with elements inspired by various historical eras, used in entirely contemporary knitwear for present day women, men and children. Many of the designs, like the Georgia vest/shawl/scarf, have instructions for multiple variations, including children's and adult sizes (like the Mary dress) and for men's and women's versions (like the Isidor scarf and Isadora cowl and turban set). The patterns in Book 25 are knit in Elsebeth Lavold Tweedy Wool, SensuAl, Silky Wool and Silky Wool XL yarns.
