Our new issue, Simply Knitting 130, is on sale now! We have fresh colours and fabulous designs, perfect for the new season. Plus, Alan Dart’s adorable Petey the Penguin will be a cute quick project.
As spring approaches, it’s time to get bright and breezy, and we’ve got the perfect projects for you to do just that. Fancy something fun? How about a slightly sparkly, delicately lacy jumper in variegated yarn? It’s the perfect partner for jeans and smart skirts alike. If you’re in the market for something a bit different, we’ve got a lovely jumper that uses a slightly unusual construction technique. Knitted from the bottom up with the sleeves built-in, you’ve got less seaming to do and a comfy casual shape to wear afterwards. Genius! For something a bit more feminine, don’t miss our Fair Isle short-sleeved top – it’s pretty, lightweight and perfect for spring. Looking for something ever-so-slightly edgy? Our zip-detail jumper bridges the gap between classic and modern with ease.
Brisk spring days at the playground will be much warmer with our moss stitch kids’ tunic. It’s easy to move in but super snuggly, to keep active little ones happy! And to keep yourself cosy until the warm weather properly arrives, we’ve got a stylish cabled hat, and some bright striped mittens – they’ll cut out the cold and add that special something to your outfit at the same time. If you whip up a pair of our snuggly basketweave socks too, you’ll be ready for any changeable British weather.
February sees the launch of the brand new Shaun the Sheep film, and to celebrate, we’ve designed a fun and cosy Shaun hat. With a huge pom-pom and the famous sheep’s face on it, you’re bound to fall for this accessory.
And we haven’t forgotten about the home. A crisp apple cushion will be a funky addition to your sofa, and it’s bound to start a few conversations! Or why not whip up some storage solutions for your crafty bits and bobs? With stylish baskets, bags, jar covers and pin cushions, your craft space will be transformed with this month’s collection.
Did you spot him? The cheeky chappy, giving you a wave? He’s the latest critter to spring from Alan Dart’s imagination and he’ll be a delight to knit! With few pieces and only a couple of colours, he’ll be done in no time!
