Simply Knitting Issue 132 / 2015

Simply Knitting issue 132 is on sale now, and can you believe it? This issue marks Simply Knitting’s 10th anniversary, and to celebrate we’ve got an extra special edition of the mag for you. Featuring fresh new season looks and on-trend garments, you can’t miss this issue.

Light and lacy is what we want as the weather warms up, and our cover garment is just that: a classic vintage shape, with unusual construction to keep your mind whizzing. See the bottom of the page for how you could win the yarn to knit it too! Or how about a textured pullover for those inevitable chilly evenings? Pop it on top of jeans or a skirt for a stylish look no matter what the occasion. For a staple that will go with everything, why not knit up a ruffle-edged cardi? You can wear it anywhere. And keeping up with the Fair Isle trend, we’ve got a bright and colourful jumper for the chaps.

There are plenty of treats for the home, too! We’ve got a beautiful kitchen collection this issue, including coasters, wash cloths and jar labels to give your home a fresh spring feel and help you get organised along the way! There’s a snuggly cable cushion for your favourite armchair, and you’re going to want to find a blank space on the wall for Alan Dart’s newest creation. Get ready to knit your very own clock – that’s right! Alan has designed an adorable Hickory Dickory Dock and it is simply irresistible.

Fancy something quicker? How about a stylish floral brooch? Choose from three designs and use up some of your stash in the process. Or, for a bit of fun, whip up the super cute donkey purse! Use it for coins, useful bits of stationery or even your essential make up – you’ll wonder how you lived without it!
