Simplechic ― Designer Knits, Superquick!

Knitwear designer Jil Eaton offers up this collection of 20 colorful concoctions that knit up to perfection. The look ranges from the high fashion mohair wrap to the classic cashmere sweater to the whimsical Pop Top hat. Even the family dog is in on the knits, with a functional waterproof jacket. Projects are quick and full of fun, with bright colors, soft yarns, and unmistakable design touches like cable detailing on sweaters and mitts, tassels and trims on hats, and buttons and bows for babies. The guide has a quick refresher section for those in need of a quick review or beginners. Tips, tool and sizing guides, and care instructions are also included. For seasoned knitters looking for flair or new knitters needing achievable but stylish projects beyond scarves, the patterns in this book are clear, exciting, and inspiring.
