The Knitter Issue 210

The Knitter – Issue 210, December 2024

Looking for a special project to cast on now and enjoy through the winter? Our New Year collection in Issue 210 brings you gorgeously cosy sweaters, including a beautiful cable jumper by Sarah Hatton, Outi Kater’s elegant ‘Inari’ colourwork yoked sweater, a colourful intarsia checkerboard jumper, a contemporary cabled cardigan by Lisa Richardson, and a smart slip stitch sweater for men.

Lovely accessories include a tartan shawl, herringbone socks, and the final instalment of our hap shawl knitalong. We also chat with legendary knitting expert Susan Crawford about her new book of vintage colourwork patterns, and explore how to create self-striping socks that match perfectly.

Our special supplement features a classic Fair Isle cardigan from Mary Henderson, knitted in the round with steeks. It has a saddle shoulder construction, sleeves worked in a garter rib pattern, and is knitted in a combination of yarns from John Arbon Textiles for a lovely finish. It’s accompanied by a Masterclass on finishing your steek edges using ribbons or knitted facings, for a flawless finish.
