KNITSONIK & Friends: Colour to Knit is an inspiring creative adventure. There are four exciting stranded colourwork projects from four different designers for you to make, and each one comes with enabling resources designed to build your knowledge and experience of playing with colour in your knitting.

Patricia’s scarf provides a framework for turning memories into a bold and striking palette, while Nolwenn’s fingerless mitts celebrate the colour possibilities of the random variegated yarn that languishes in almost every knitter’s stash. Felix’s matching cowl, hat and mittens inspire new ways of devising and conceiving gradients, while Bev’s statement wrap presents a massive knitterly canvas for joyous colour play. There is something here for everyone from the novice to the more experienced stranded colourwork designer and each project comes with printable colouring-in pages, essays and insights that give you different things to try out on the page and on your needles. The collection is brought together through sumptuous photography and bright and bold uses of colour.

Follow the journey through these projects to discover a range of creative approaches and use all the tools within to enjoy making these projects, and making them your own.

This project started life as an open competition in the KNITSONIK Ravelry group and grew into an absorbing and international endeavour. KNITSONIK & Friends: Colour to Knit reflects its creators’ shared love of playfulness, colouring in, creativity, and stranded colourwork. The designers are Patricia Kimmitt (Canada); Nolwenn Pensivy (France); Felicity (Felix) Ford and Beverley Dott (UK). The eBook was tech-edited by Frauke Urban (Germany) and the photography is by Fergus Ford Photography (UK).
