This might be one of my favourite issues of Knit Now that I’ve seen, with such a varied mix of patterns, relaxing & informative features and crammed with expert advice.

As you take a woolly wander through this edition, you’ll discover wonderful winter surprises, such as the Lapland cushion, a gorgeous snowy wonderland of a project that will make a statement on any chair this festive period. However, if you’re wanting to make a statement with your wardrobe for many years to come, Helen’s Novar set is a must-make, with its eye-catching ombré colourwork.

Speaking of the bold and beautiful statements, the cover star Kerissa cardigan is one of my all-time favourite projects; this contemporary colourwork design is brilliant for both smart and casual soirées. For a Christmas jumper that’s the definition of fun, then Jane Burns’s Naughty Noel jumper is THE one.

As always, we bring you the best from your favourite brands, with year-round designs from Rowan in the form of a classic lace shawl, West Yorkshire Spinners debut the must-have socks all inspired by British birds and more throughout these knit & purl pages.

That’s all for now, until next time, happy knitting!
