Books – Kids Knit by Kerry Kimber

Kids Knit is a stylish and aspirational book containing age and stage appropriate knitting techniques and patterns. The projects enable children to learn the basics of knitting and start creating simple items very quickly. Kids Knit is also interspersed with beautiful photography, knitting jokes and activities and attractive illustrations. The start of each level contains photographed step-by-step tutorials covering new skills to make learning straightforward.

AUTHOR: Kerry Kimber always wanted to teach her children to knit, so she thought hard about how to do it in a way that would encourage and enthuse them from the start. She realised the potential to teach these skills more widely, and she began the Kids Knit programme, which after proving to be a rip-roaring success became Knitting For All, an educational organisation which teaches knitting to children, young people and adults in the UK and Ireland. She is based in Edinburgh.
