A knitted world is coming undone, and eleven-year-old Birta may be the only one who can mend it. After she pulls a half-drowned dog, Lykkja, from the rocks below her village, she starts noticing dropped stitches spreading through the moss, the village and the memories of the people she loves. A fantasy adventure for young readers and families who read aloud together, inspired by Icelandic folklore and the landscape of North Iceland.

The story
Unraveled is one complete illustrated fantasy, told in three connected parts, set on an island stitched entirely from yarn and rope, with full-colour knitted-style artwork on every page. Across The Dropped Stitch, Threadless, and Cast Off, Birta learns to mend her world with her own two hands.
A note from the author
I wrote this story for my own family — to show that no matter how big your dreams are, you should never stop dreaming. It grew into a whole knitted universe, stitched together from yarn, rope and imagination: a story about found family, about craft and care, and about the kind of magic that comes from making things by hand.
How it was made
Written by Katrin Hólm. AI tools helped with some passages of the text and were used to create the illustrations under her art direction; every page was reviewed and edited by her.
The audiobooks use a digital voice created from the author's own voice.
