Description

Immerse yourself in the magical, fantastical land of fairy tales, with giants, witches, princes and princesses. Be spellbound by this beautiful book full of fun and fabulous characters to knit and recreate 15 of the well-loved fairy tales, including Cinderella, Hansel and Gretel, Puss in Boots, Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs and Little Red Riding Hood. Made from washable, readily available DK yarn, these knitted characters will bring the fairy tales to life for young children, encouraging imaginative play and conversation. You will find all the information you need on techniques, tools and materials, plus there will be plenty of photographs of each character from different angles so you can clearly see how your knitting should look as you work your way through the projects. Part of a popular series, this new title is bound to delight knitters and recipients alike. AUTHOR: Sarah Keen is passionate about knitting, finding it relaxing and therapeutic. She discovered her love of the craft at a very early age - her mother taught her to knit when she was just four years old and by the age of nine she was making jackets and jumpers. Sarah now works as a freelance pattern designer and finds calculating rows and stitches challenging but fascinating. She is experienced in designing knitted toys for children, and also enjoys writing patterns for charity. She has written four other titles for GMC, all in the same popular series: Knitted Wild Animals, Knitted Farm Animals, Knitted Noah's Ark and Knitted Nursery Rhymes.
