Simply Knitting Issue 125 October 2014

Our new issue is on sale now, and with Halloween just around the corner, it’s time to get prepared. If you’re planning a quiet night in, we’ve got just what you need. Our Collection of Halloween knits has all the essentials for a scary-movie-marathon: cosy slippers to keep your toes warm, decorative bats to set the mood, a big eyeball cushion to hide behind (of course), and a skeletal cosy for your all-important tub of ice cream. It’s all a bit of fun, and if you can’t do it at halloween when can you? If that’s not enough spooky business, check out Alan Dart’s Senor Skeleton. Inspired by the Mexican festival, The Day of the Dead, this jaunty bag of bones will put a smile on even the biggest Halloween party poopers.
