Voices from the Steppe

If you want to know more about Mongolia, Mette Holm's book is a good place to start. "Voices from the Steppe" takes you on an unforgettable journey through Mongolia's magnificent landscapes and deep into the heart of its culture and traditions. The book is not just a collection of stories, but an introduction to a country rich in history, tradition and unique beauty. The author, who has spent considerable time in Mongolia, shares through her words a world that is both fascinating and inspiring.

The book presents a series of personal stories and anecdotes from people who live in this rugged and often challenging environment. From nomads wandering across the vast steppes to artists seeking to preserve and promote their cultural heritage, "Voices from the Steppe" gives a voice to those who are otherwise rarely heard in the wider world.

The book is illustrated with Søren Zeuth's fantastic photos, some of which can be seen here on the page. Also read Judith Betak's review in Berlingske Tidende . "Voices from the Steppe" was created on the initiative of the Danish Mongolian Society, which works to spread awareness of Mongolian culture in Denmark.

Yak wool requires the same gentle care as cashmere. Wash in lukewarm water with a mild wool detergent and dry flat on a towel. Air frequently instead of washing to preserve the natural properties of the fibres.

Yak wool is naturally warm, breathable and durable. It comes from the yak, which lives on the Mongolian plateau, where it is adapted to extreme temperatures. The yarn provides a soft but robust material with a natural, rustic look.
