The Moomins are the central characters in a series of books and comic strips by Swedish-speaking Finn Tove Jansson (19142001), a painter, illustrator and writer. The Moomins are a family of fantastical white, roundish, hippo-like characters, with large snouts.
After the first Moomin story published in 1945, Tove Jansson went on to write another eight books, four picture books and numerous comic strip stories about the Moomins. The Moomins have inspired numerous television series, films and theme parks.
This glorious sock collection inspired by the Moomin books are delightful. Each pair is a loving homage to the characters created by Tove Jansson. With 29 different patterns and easy to follow charts. Who doesnt want Moomins on their socks? With a little bit of character history for each pattern (in case you did not know who Snorkmaiden is) It may encourage you to read the books, or equally book fans to learn to knit!
