Knitted Home

Fill your home with 30 contemporary hand-knitted designs by Melanie Porter. All of the projects in Knitted Home are easy to make and will inject style and colour into your interiors. There are three colour schemes to choose from - blues and greens in 'Cool Collection'; reds, oranges, and yellows in 'Hot Ideas'; and whites, creams, and greys in 'Pale Palette' - so there is something for all tastes. You can start with smaller projects, such as the bolster pillow cover, flower vase cosy, or stripy clock cover, then move on to something a little larger, such as the rope knit basket, chunky knit rug, or covered footstool. With a comprehensive techniques section, you'll discover how to use giant knitting needles and how to measure furniture for a knitted cover, as well as all the basics of knitting, so even beginners can try their hand at these fabulous ideas.
