Knit Now Magazine Knit Now 104 Retour à l'édition précédente

This month I’m well and truly in holiday mode, thinking about bright shades and light and airy fabrics. As soon as I’ve finished this issue I’ll be on a plane to Nice in France, so you’ll probably spot a few pieces in here inspired by the seaside! I love out cool cotton cover star, with its stylish nod to beach huts. If you’re heading down to the shore this summer, why not knit Zoe’s fun beach bag to take with you?

If you’re looking for a small project to take on holiday, I absolutely love Sara’s Meknes Shawl. It’s a satisfying pattern to knit, and small enough to fit in your hand luggage. Of course, baby knits are great for knitting in the summer too because they’re not too big in your lap. We’ve got some fantastic ones to choose from, not only in the magazine but in your exclusive Stylecraft baby book too. I absolutely love our official Spot the Dog jumper – do you read the Spot books with the little ones in your family?

Speaking of reading, this issue isn’t just about pattern, there are some fantastic features to read as well. If you’re in the holiday mood, don’t miss out top tips for holiday knitting, or for a bit of fun, take a look at out best knit picks based on your star sign. As ever, there are some inspiring knitters to meet this issue, including Marie and Dominique from Wool is the Answer, who offer a fascinating glimpse inside their woolly business.

Happy knitting,

Kate
