Chic & Simple Chunky Knits
For Arm Knitting, Needles & Crochet: Make Elegant Scarves, Bags, Caps, Blankets and More! (Includes 23 Projects)
Bring the hygge home with these chic and cozy chunky knits
This book shows you how to use jumbo knitting needles and crochet hooks, plus your hands and arms, to create fun, trendy accessories for yourself and your home. Even if you're a beginner, this book is for you. Chunky knitting uses thick yarn, so it's easy to work with without worrying about being too precise. The effect is intentionally lumpy and thick — hence the name 'chunky knits' Although the knitting is quick and easy, the results are charming.
The projects in this book include a wide variety of accessories, with 23 different projects.
- Up your infinity scarf game with a comfy cable knit neck warmer
- A loose-knit beanie that's both cute and practical
- Multiple headbands to help you create the perfect hair accessories
- An oversized clutch to make your next night out a bit funkier
- A warm blanket to snuggle up with
- A cat bed for your fur child
Illustrated step-by-step lessons in the basics of hand/arm knitting, chunky knitting and chunky crochet take you through each project, while lifestyle images of the finished pieces provide inspiration.
