Double Knits: Pairs of Patterns for Babies and Toddlers

This exciting new book from Zöe Mellor responds to the needs of today¹s knitter by offering a flexible, innovative approach to knitwear patterns. Each project can be made up in two different ways ‹ patterns are offered with a choice of colorways, styles, and motifs. You choose: knit the windproof fisherman design as a pullover or jacket; the cable-stitch sweater with or without the color; the booties plain or patterned, with or without ties. Give your child a choice between yellow or blue, hearts or stars. Or you can make both designs for siblings eager to maintain their individuality. Each pattern includes instructions for sizes ranging from birth to three years, and the stylish designs are suitable for beginners as well as advanced knitters. Among the 20 projects are a blue patchwork blanket with stars (or pink with hearts); a wool teddy bear (or a tiger) hat with ears; a sweater adorned with big (or little) strawberries; a Fair Isle jacket (or sweater). A book that will please both children and adults, with each delightful creation modeled by twins. Zöe Mellor, a London-based designer, is the author of Head to Toe Knits and Colorful Knits for You and Your Child.
