Knitting: Mittens
A nifty pair of basic mittens, featuring a twisted rib cuff. Uses just one skein of Araucania Tepa!
Knitting: Fingerless Gloves
A new one-skein project kit from This Is Knit, complete with a full set of beginner notes, needles, buttons and yarn.
Knitting: Baby Blanket
For a brand new person, what could be better than a cozy cabled blanket? It’s just the right size to fit a pram, and the knitting’s straightforward: with no shaping at all and regular repeats of a simple cable, it would make a very good first cable project. It’s practical too, because the yarn is machine washable.
Knitting: Shrug / Bolero
A shrug for all seasons! Knit from the top down, with short row shaping and lace edges for flair & style. Try it in the recommended Merletto yarn for warm weather or stay snug in cooler times with a luxurious alpaca blend dk (such as Debbie Bliss Andes).
Knitting: Coffee / Tea Pot
Sunday mornings call for tea cosies… why not knit one to match your own kitchen’s colour scheme? The cable and rib ensure that this cosy is flexible enough to fit most pots. Be as quirky or as conventional as you like with your button selection and add ribbon or a knitted i-cord to keep the cosy snug at the top.
