Knitting a hat or a pair of mittens for a beloved child could hardly be more satisfying: the project is finished quickly, the small amounts of yarn that are needed make for great stash-busting - and in the end, you've kept a sweet person warm during her grand adventures outdoors.
In this charming follow-up to her acclaimed Boys' Knits, Katya Frankel shows once again just how perfectly she understands kids' tastes. Whether you are knitting for girls or boys or both, you will find plenty of great-looking, quick-to-knit, easy-to-wear projects to keep your small people cozy.
Shot in the breathtakingly gorgeous parklands around Northumberland, UK, the photographs will convince even the most die-hard resister of knitwear that maybe just this one time he'll wear your handknits.
