Ser ey CeeWelcome to your fresh new issue of Knit Now!
This month we'te taking our first tentative steps
Into spring, with brighter colours and a focus on
knits that are perfect for layering — so whatever
the weether, youll find something In these pages
to suit. Donna Jones's Moongazers Capelet (page
42) is perfect for throwing on over an outfit to add
an extra layer of warmth. Of course, there's nothing
quite like a cute little bunny to welcome spring ~ and
youl find the pattern to knit this issue's free kit on
age 52. If you're not really toy person, we've got a
couple of other great options to use your free yarn too. | love the look of
Jennys little mitts (page 50).
‘The eagle-eyed among you might spot that we've gone a bit animalmad
this issue. There are lots of cute animal-themed things in the shops right
‘now, 50 | thought it would be fun to reflect that in our knits! I've got a little
cat at home, aut | really love dogs too, and I'm really tempted by Kari
Helene Rane’s super-cute cow (page 32).
If your needles are full right now, you don't have to cast anything on
straight away. We've got plenty for you to read in this issue as well. Our
roving reporter Anna Elliott has been investigating machine knitting (age
40), linterviewed Skein Queen (page 22) and of course we've got all
the latest news and reviews throughout this issue. So grab a cuppa and
settle in for a good read!
Happy knitting, loli,
