Whether you’re looking for gift ideas to knit for the forthcoming festive season, or fancy treating yourself to a luxurious accessory now that the weather is getting colder, you’ll find lots of inspiration in this issue.

Our designers have used a wide range of interesting techniques, from Fair Isle and Celtic closed-loop cables to entrelac, lace and felting. Along with smaller projects, including hats, cowls, scarves and mitts, there are gorgeous sweaters and cardigans. Anniken Allis has designed an exquisite lace shawl for us, while Mary Henderson displays her skills with Fair Isle, and Dario Tubiana plays with colour on his cosy marled poncho.

Our Masterclass explores how to achieve the best results when felting your knits, while we discover the story of the pioneering Victorian sisters who became best-selling knitting writers. Meet the design team at Finnish yarn company Novita, go behind the scenes at Rowan’s 40th birthday party, and explore the best new yarns for autumn and winter.

Plus, our special supplement brings you a beautiful colourwork yoked cardigan in Nordic wool.
