Knit Baby Blankets!

A baby’s on the way, and you want to give something personal, something truly of yourself. The solution: Sit down and knit a jaunty cap, a cozy crib blanket, or some fun booties for baby’s sweet little feet. New parents will treasure any of the adorable projects in the Knit Baby scries–attractive, die-cut, how-to-books, each with 15 patterns of baby’s cutest accessories. As with all of the titles in the die-cut knitting series, the Knit Baby books are written with the beginning or occasional knitter in mind. All instructions are in plain English–abbreviations are kept to a minimum, and all terms are thoroughly explained. Plus, the unique color-coded column format makes it easy for knitters to follow the instructions for the size of their knitted item. Both books feature patterns from a wide range of knitting designers in the United States and Canada, and they are packed with practical information, including advice on which yarns are most suitable for baby knits–soft cottons, chenilles, and warm, machine-washable wools. Each book includes at least one felted knitting project; felting is a hot technique that produces soft, cozy, unusual items that knitters everywhere are enjoying. The styles range from traditional to hip, from whimsical to bold, and all are adorable
