Simply Knitted Socks is the perfect guide for anyone seasoned knitter or complete beginner looking to delve into the world of knitted socks to either create something for themselves, or to make bespoke and cosy gifts for men, women, and children. Who knew knitted socks were so much fun to make! AUTHOR: Christine Boggis is the editor of Knitting magazine and author of JOMO Knits. She worked as a journalist in Sussex, Vienna and London before joining Knitting, where she writes about knitting all day long then rushes home to spend the evening actually doing it.

No-Sew Knitting contains 21 projects for clothing, accessories and homeware for both adults and children, which do not require any sewing up. This book combines both simple and more unusual techniques for creating fabulous knitting projects, without any need to sew. Each project is difficulty rated, making it easy to select based on time and/or ability and there are a wide range of yarns and sizing options to choose from. Each technique is clearly explained with easy-to-follow illustrations. Alongside the patterns there are useful measurement diagrams and tips to help the reader. It is also packed with beautiful and helpful photographs.
Knitting can help with stress and anxiety, but sometimes even this relaxing craft can contribute to the worries of life. Will it fit well in the end? How will I manage a new technique? This book aims to take all those concerns out of the craft, as shawls don't have to fit in a certain way, or even end up in exactly the right shape to work. Suitable for everyone from beginners to experts, the workbook format introduces all the techniques you need before each design. It also includes a series of articles exploring the health benefits of knitting, how it can contribute to mindfulness and wellbeing.
