King Cole Christmas Knits Book 13
Christmas is coming, and so are the fluffiest friends you'll knit all year. Christmas Knits Book 13 from King Cole is a 26-page collection of festive toys designed by Carol Connelly, packed with snowy charm and just the right amount of Rudolph mischief.
Inside you'll find a whole family of Emperor Penguins, with Mum and Dad keeping their little chick tucked safely between them. There are three cuddly Polar Bears, each dressed for the weather in cosy hats, coats and scarves, and three versions of Rudolph himself, two larger ones and a smaller companion, all with antlers at the ready and noses shining bright.
The toys are knitted in King Cole's newly relaunched Truffle yarn, which is wonderfully soft and fluffy and gives the animals their cuddly, teddy-bear texture. Dollymix DK takes care of the details and a sprinkling of Glitz DK adds a bit of festive sparkle to the bears' outfits and Rudolph's scarf.
These make lovely gifts, cheerful additions to a Christmas display, or a nice project to keep you busy on a dark evening with the fire on. Being toys, they're also a bit more forgiving than a jumper if you're not a confident knitter yet.
