The weather where I live has taken a complete nose-dive in the last week. Summer is definitely gone. I feel like I should be sad about it, but I’m just not. I live for these cold, dreary days. No, it might not be “picnics in the park” weather, but it is most definitely “cosy up with your knitting” weather, and I am here for it!

As a child, I spent a few years living in Cyprus. It was, for the most part, a brilliant experience. But Winter and Christmas never quite felt right… There was no waking up to frost glistening on the ground, or curling up under a blanket with a hot drink in the evening, or bundling up in coats and scarfs and mittens to venture outside… And it j...

Trust me when I tell you this shawl is essentially just a big knitted hug.

With its high-contrast, geometric colourwork pattern, Kerville is a modern take on the classic Fair Isle sweater.

Originally designed for Issue 138 of Knit Now magazine, this gorgeously textured piece was inspired by the floaty, feminine fabrics and textures that have defined the boho style for decades. I specifically wanted to include eyelets and elongated stitches as a nod to the lace and fringing that have become almost synonymous with Bohemian and hipp...

If gothic romance vibes are your thing, this stunning hat inspired by the shadows and silhouettes in a moonlit forest is just the thing for you.

Patterned socks might just be the best knitting project of all. There, I said it. Of course, you are free to disagree but at least hear me out. They’re small and generally only need one skein of yarn, so they are super easy to carry with you and fairly gentle on your bank balance. But they’re also way more fun to knit (and impressive to look at...

With its two layers, this might just be the warmest, cosiest shawl ever. Although the second layer underneath is completely optional, it is the perfect opportunity to introduce a stunning pop of colour, which can be peeped through the eyelets in the Argyle-inspired texture pattern on the front piece.

The effortless beauty of the Retiro socks means this is a pattern you are going to come back to time and time again. That colourwork is incredibly simple to knit - no stranded colourwork here, just slipped stitches! - and, set against those striped soles and picot edging, it looks really rather effective.

The beauty of the Bacton shawl is found in its apparent contradictions - it is somehow both modern and timeless, it combines crisp lines and sharp angles with squishy texture, and is sturdy enough to stand up to the bracing wind without losing any of its drape. Plus, with its slightly unusual mirrored short row construction, it offers something...

With its combination of patterns and high-contrast colours, Hyde is a playful take on the classic raglan sweater - a perfect mix of timeless and modern, which you are going to love knitting just as much as the recipient is going to love wearing!

Searching for a sock pattern that’s going to give you maximum impact for minimal effort? This might be just the thing for you! The colourwork fade featured up the legs of the Excel sock looks super striking but is actually really simple to knit. In fact, it’s the perfect introduction to knitting colourwork socks because the pattern is simple an...

In a new take on the popular fade, this fingering-weight shawl combines squishy texture and two-colour brioche to create a luxuriously cosy addition to your autumn wardrobe. With the traditional triangle shape developing quickly outwards from the initial i-cord tab cast-on and the pattern switching regularly between straightforward, intuitive t...

A simple raglan baby cardigan with textured panels either side of the button band. The shaping is straightforward and intuitive, while the stitch pattern on the front pieces adds just enough detail to keep the knitting process interesting.
