Synopsis

Style Your Own Kids' Knits provides an easy-to-follow way to design your own knitwear for kids. The book offers a basic master pattern for eight different sizes, including babies, toddlers and children up to 10 years old, and allows you the option of knitting a pullover or a jacket with either a crew or a V-neck in each size range.
Every pattern is designed with children in mind, with comfortable shapes in easy-wear, kid-proof yarns. Simply select a basic garment and then personalize it, choosing from an extensive range of motifs, edgings and borders. Whether you decide to use a snail, a ghost or a circus motif, or to add lace edges or bobbles and ruffs, you can create something to suit every child's taste.

À propos de la quatrième de couverture

First select a pattern in the correct size range and decide if you want to knit a jacket or a pullover, and whether your child would prefer a round or a V-neck.

Next, consider whether you want to knit the basic garment or browse the Style variations for collars, hoods, side vents, panels, fastenings, edgings and pockets to alter the garment's shape.

Then, to enhance your knitted fabric with alternative textures or edgings, turn to the Stitch library for different stitch patterns, edgings, borders and a large selection of lace and textured patterns.

Finally, look through the themed motifs in the Motif library and pick one or more that suits the garment and the child. Have fun choosing from animals, birds, toys, planes, flowers, stars and many more motifs.
