AMAZING BOOKS

TO MAKE YOUR AUTUMN

W

ho would have thought it? We’ve had such fun during the Olympics with the Knitlympians, and just as we were wondering what on earth we were going to do with ourselves, the advance copies of all our new books began to flood into the office. Autumn is the perfect time for crafting and we’ve got heaps of great titles, so let’s get stuck in. We’re very excited to be introducing an incredible talent to the book world with Merchant & Mills. You already love their sewing notions, patterns and products so it will be no surprise that their Sewing Book is going to be a big hit. Merchant & Mills are in the middle of a massive move to East Sussex where they’ve got some great plans, and managed to take time out to talk to us about the background to the book and what they’re up to next – you’ll read it first here. The talented team behind Best In Show are back with a second litter of knitted dogs. Jo Osborne and Sally Muir started keeping a list of dogs from the minute the first book was on sale and knew exactly which ones they had to include in this new volume. They’re just as brilliant as before – and don’t forget that we’ve also got notebooks and cards in the Best In Show range. Jane Brocket has turned her talents to the Gentle Art of Stitching – is there anything she can’t do? Her designs are beautiful and we just love the way Jane breaks the rules and presents things in such a simple and understandable way.

It is never too early to shout CHRISTMAS!! so roll up for our two fabulous Christmas titles. Debbie Harrold and the team from Knit & Purl Cards are at it again with We Knit You A Merry Christmas – packed full of fun creations and characters. The hotly anticipated Mollie Makes Christmas is finally here (the last book to arrive in the office – we were positively popping by the time it got here!). Amy gives the inside story on the fun she has had working with such an amazing selection of crafters to create this book, and also the magazine’s editor Jane Toft. You’ve all loved knitting London and so we couldn’t resist sending Emma King Stateside for Knit New York which is out just in time for Thanksgiving. Who would have thought we could recreate the Statue of Liberty and the Empire State Building in knit! They look great and a knitted New York Taxi is the perfect present for Christmas. We have had so much fun making this Autumn’s books – we hope you have a fabulous time reading them, and keep crafting!
