Little Box of Knits for Baby - Tapa dura

No. 116, June 2007 A box containing 20 patterns on laminated cards, each with a colour picture of the finished item, but no babies in sight: consequently, nothing to indicate what the garments would look like when worn. The patterns include 4 Afghans and a 'carriage robe' (blanket), 4 sets of hats with bootees or mittens and 7 jumpers. Each card has a caption such as 'Knit this lacy [christening] gown with love in every stitch for an important day in your precious baby's life' or 'The delicate cables on the sleeves add a charming touch.' (The sleeves are knitted on 3.75mm needles). The finest needles used are 3.5mm. With the vast number of other books and leaflets of baby patterns, you may wish to have a look at these cards before buying. Lesley Fidler * SlipKnot *
