Meet the team
Welcome
It’s that time of year again, where we begin
thinking about what hand-made presents we need
to get started on if they’re going to be ready in time
for Christmas. With this in mind, inside we have
plenty of small but perfectly formed projects that
you would be proud to give or receive. In fact, you
may find it hard to part with them!
With an array of quick to hook accessories, homewares and even
simple garments, you should be able to cover most of your gifting
needs. One present I would love to find in my stocking this year is the
pair of pom-pom slippers from page 46. These comfy slippers are both
practical and stylish – and I just can’t resist a cute pom-pom!
Liz Ward’s gorgeously cosy poncho on this month’s cover would also
make a great gift. The super bulky weight yarn makes it fly off the hook
in no time at all. However, the asymmetrical silhouette and squishy roll
neck are stylish and substantial enough to make the receiver suitably
impressed by the amount of effort that has gone into their gift!
The poncho would also be a great project to try out this issue’s free gift,
a set of blocking pins. They’re great for holding pieces together as you
seam as well as markers for checking tension – and they’ll also be just
what you need for blocking our stunning hairpin lace shawl on page 85.
Happy hooking!
