Vintage Knit Knacks by Sue Culligan
Vintage Knit Knacks is a fun, project-based guide to knitting aimed at knitters of all abilities. The title has two meanings: first, the book shows readers how to make a range of fun and original knick-knacks; second, the projects are designed to help beginners pick up the 'knack' of knitting. The book starts with a section on the basics of knitting, and then features 20 original and creative projects, including a cafetiere warmer; a cushion cover; a wall clock; camera case; fingerless mitts and a hot water bottle cover. The projects incorporate lots of techniques, including lace, fairisle, cabling and beading, and range in difficulty from simple to complex.
Sue Culligan studied graphics and photography at Brighton College of Art. Having been a passionate knitter since childhood, she decided to start her own business designing and selling children's knitwear in a tiny shop in Brighton, so in 1981 Kangaroo (woolly jumpers!) was born. The business evolved over the years to become a yarn shop, then finally the internet business that it is today. Sue also writes the yarn review for Knitting magazine and is the author of The Knitting Stitch and Motif Directory. She now spends much of her time in France, where she runs a B&B and knitting retreat.
