Knit Now 124 Digital Magazine

This month we’re just revelling in the joy of knitting! With gift-knitting season behind us, we can throw ourselves wholeheartedly into some special projects without the ticking deadline looming over us. We tasked our designers with creating some really luxurious patterns that you’ll love to knit as much as you’ll enjoy wearing.

That doesn’t mean they have to cost the earth though! You can get a little bit of luxury for less with our cover jumper (page 21) and make the most of a really special yarn with Kate Martin’s Supernal Shawl (page 30). I’m also enjoying a little bit of nostalgia this month, with Sachiyo Ishii’s adorable take on four of our favourite characters from The Magic Roundabout (page 15). A lot of my friends and family are still working from home – I might make a couple of them an Ermintrude or a Florence to keep them company on their desks!

We’re looking forward as well as back, with Susan Crawford. Susan has revisited her work on the Vintage Shetland Project with her new book Evolution – read all about it in our exclusive interview (page 50). There’s plenty more to read this issue as well. Don’t forget to enter our giveaways (page 91) and discover your new favourite yarn shop (page 80). You can find lots of chunky knitting inspiration (page 26) and of course we’ve got all the usual news and reviews!
