All the patterns here are in bright, warm and inviting colours. And they'd make great projects for old and new knitters alike.

The photos in the book also provide ideas on how to wear your newly-knitted design. Knitting & Crochet August 2015 A great collection of 40 patterns from 21 different designers. Patterns are graded for difficulty. Many of the patterns are short and sweet making them easy to knit - some have just one row repeated; at least three designs have just two rows repeated, others just four rows repeated.
