This latest collection of original children's knits from best-selling author Debbie Bliss has a delightful farmyard theme. Over 30 designs range from whole layettes and all-in-one outfits for babies to sweaters, cardigans and jackets for older children and even cuddly soft toys such as cows and sheep. As always with Debbie's designs, the traditional is attractively combined with more adventurous ideas and a Mother Goose cardigan and a baby jacket with a border of pigs sit happily alongside a patchwork sweater with animals motifs inspired by American folk art and a tartan jacket with a border of Highland cows. And to appeal to children's love of dressing up there are irresistible designs such as a duck all-in-one with webbed feet and a beak and a range of matching animal slippers and soft toys. Clear instructions and easy-to-follow charts mean that even less experienced knitters will have no difficulty in creating these stunning knits, which are all illustrated in tempting colour photographs.

Synopsis:

This latest collection of knitting patterns from Debbie Bliss has a farmyard theme. Over 30 designs range from whole layettes and all-in-one outfits for babies, to sweaters, cardigans and jackets for older children, and even soft toys such as cows and sheep. Clear instructions and charts aim to assist even the least experienced knitters to create the designs, which are all illustrated in colour. The traditional is combined with more adventurous ideas, so that a Mother Goose cardigan, and a baby jacket with a border of pigs, sit alongside a patchwork sweater with motifs inspired by American folk art, and a tartan jacket with a border of Highland cows. To appeal to children's love of dressing up, there are designs such as a duck all-in-one with webbed feet and a beak, and a range of matching animal slippers. Debbie Bliss is also author of "New Baby Knits" and "Kids' Knits for Heads, Hands and Toes".
