Special Knits by Debbie Bliss
22 unique and baby-specific designs Suitable for all levels of skill from beginners upward Fully illustrated with 40 colour photographs The birth of a baby is a celebration, and Special Knits is based on our need to create lovingly-made items for new little people, in soft yarns that are gentle against delicate skin. Some of the designs in this book are simple to make – their special quality lies in the softness of the fabric, usually a cashmere mix. There are other projects where the uniqueness of the design comes from a scattering of beads, a velvet bow, or an organza ribbon. Most of the designs require little knowledge of complicated techniques; a simple garter-stitch blanket is perfect for a beginner and is given a touch of luxury with an edging of satin, while for those knitters who prefer more of a challenge, there is a sampler blanket or a cross-stitch embroidered gingham cardigan. In an age of the throwaway, these are garments that will become modern classics, knits to cherish and hand down through generations.Debbie Bliss is knitwear designer and hugely successful author. She has contributed knitwear designs to numerous magazines and has made several television appearances during her career. She has her own exclusive range of luxury yarns, which she has used to create the brand new designs in this delightful book of family knits.
