by Erika Knight
This collection of classic, vintage-style knits for little children, aged two to five years old, has instant appeal. Not only are the designs quick to make, they are great to wear. Erika Knight has created a brilliant array of easy-to-knit projects in soft, comfortable yarns that are ideally suited to delicate, sensitive, young skin. The colour palette is deliberately retro in feel: muted soft tones of oatmeal and charcoal in marled wools, old-rose pinks and soft lavender blues, with the occasional bolder statement in black and cream.
Based on just two basic stitches - stocking stitch and garter stitch - the majority of projects are within the scope of even the most inexperienced knitter.
