Welcome to Blendy Knits

Blendy Knits Again, and this time it’s not just socks!

Grab your needles and your favourite sock yarn, then ponder over which charming pattern to choose from the second book New Zealand knitting designer, Belinda Too (Blendy) has created.

Following on from the success of ‘Blendy Knits Socks’, this new book offers 25 patterns to suit just about everyone – cute hats, legwarmers for all ages, delightful fingerless gloves, lace scarves, socks (including larger sizes) and gorgeous cardigans.

The patterns are relatively easy – just clever placement of basic knitting stitches with a few modern twists. And they have been designed with yarn efficiency in mind – you know your project is complete when you have used up all your yarn.

It’s time to get knitting – join Blendy as she Knits Again!

Blendy Knits Socks

New Zealand sock designer Belinda Too (Blendy) has created this collection of 16 socks for adults and children, with an ability level to suit all knitters. Sock knitting has a reputation for being very difficult, but it doesn’t have to be – eager beginners will be grafting their first baby sock in no time.

‘Blendy Knits Socks’ is ideal for lazy knitters (as Blendy self-professes she is) – too much complicated lace or cable makes a frustrating project – so these sock patterns mainly use clever stitches that are easy to remember, fast to knit, and best of all, look like you’ve got some absolutely incredible knitting skills! And, as an added bonus, Blendy also shows how you can turn any sock pattern into fabulous fingerless gloves.

‘Blendy Knits Socks’ includes technical advice plus hints and tips for sock knitting, and 16 patterns rated for beginner, intermediate and advanced knitting ability. A showcase of beautiful New Zealand sock yarns features throughout the book.  It’s a wonderful NZ crafting souvenir.

Cost: NZ$25
