Swedish Slöjd by Kerstin Neumuller

The Swedish art of wood and textile crafts—slow, tactile, and joyfully imperfect.

This book is a love letter to making with your hands. In Sweden, slöjd isn’t just a craft—it’s a way of thinking, living, and learning. And now, for the first time in English, this vibrant tradition is available to makers around the world.

Slöjd is full of unfussy, soul-satisfying projects—sew a cap, carve a peg rail, dye yarn with birch leaves, mend your jeans, or piece together a cozy patchwork. All 18 projects are designed to build skills, encourage creativity, and celebrate that moment when something goes from made to yours.

• Format: Softcover

• Pages: 152

• Size: 7" x 9"

Inside you'll find:

• 18 tactile projects combining wood and fiber arts

• Scandinavian design meets approachable handcraft

• Step-by-step photos and illustrations—great for beginners

• Low-barrier tools and materials: use what you already have

• Emphasis on process, play, and imperfection

This isn’t about perfection—it’s about the quiet joy of making something with your own two hands. Whether you're new to craft or already hooked, Slöjd invites you to slow down and follow your curiosity.

NOTE: All our “seconds” books are new books that sustained slight damage in transit. The damage is limited to the book’s spine, cover, or edges. Most typically, there is light crushing somewhere along the spine or edge, but there may also be scuff marks, or a minor tear or cut from an over-enthusiastic box cutter. The book is otherwise sound and clean.
