Give your children a treat with some great design from knitwear designer, Lucinda Guy. In scintillating colourways, "Designs for Kids: Handknits and Things" offers a range of 25 fantastic and original hand-knitted designs for girls and boys aged 2 to 5 years - with something to knit for every season. Rowan's beautifully soft, fresh and wearable cotton, wool and mohair yarns, bring Lucinda's designs to life, and the gorgeous illustrations by Francois Hall create a wonderful foil for the stunning designs. Birds, butterflies, animals and flowers pepper the pages, both on and off the knitted pieces. Dresses for girls, funky hats, toys and cuddly blankets form the basis of a great collection - and the designs are split into Spring, Summer Autumn and Winter. In the Spring collection create a beautiful lightweight Happy Hen Sweater in Rowan Wool Cotton - a beautiful medium-weight wool/cotton blend yarn, perfect for taking the chill off.
