Designs include chunky Aran and Guernsey sweaters, delicate summer cardigans in the colours of heather and moss, simple classic Fair Isles including a baby's cardigan with matching socks and an irresistible throw, moss-stitch jackets, and more.

The Family Collection by Debbie Bliss

A wonderfully versatile collection of knitwear designs for the whole family, from infants to adults. Debbie Bliss has often been asked why her stunning children's knitwear designs are not available in adult sizes. Now, at last, here is her first collection for the entire family. Many of the designs in this exciting new book include patterns for a complete size range, so that a classic guernsey sweater, for example, can be knitted either for a two-year-old or an adult man. A number of the designs also include variations and different colorways; a woman's cabled sweater, for instance, is also featured as a child's cardigan using the same stitch patterning. Family Knits is presented in four strikingly styled sections: Seashore, Outdoor Living, Country Weekend, and City Living, with projects ranging from simple knits to cable stitches and color patterning. With its stylish and versatile designs, easy-to-follow patterns and charts, and gorgeous color photos.
