Mini Christmas Knits

by Sue Stratford

Novelty knitters will love this collection of mini Christmas projects to knit ready for the festive season. Susan Stratford has designed twenty different projects, with alternatives in different colour schemes. There are mini Christmas stockings, a holly wreath, reindeer, a snowman, a robin, an egg cosy, a star, a Christmas pudding, gingerbread hearts, a mini Christmas sweater and much more. Full knitting instructions are given, and each project is simply photographed so that knitters have a clear look at the design, and also shown in a sumptuous styled photograph, showing the beautiful possibilities of the finished pieces. There are plenty of ideas for ways of displaying the projects. The mini knits will appeal to those looking for ways to finish up ends of yarn.

Cute little projects for Christmas ornaments, charms, or decor. I found this book just okay as I think, for projects this small, everything ought to be perfect and I see wonky seams and funky gathering. (Also, I've been reading through a bunch of teeny knits books - so this one suffers from the comparison...) Fun, but there are better books and projects out there.

Okay. Very fussy patterns. Owl and star are just ok

Certainly a way to use up some of one's stash. Small projects. Nothing for me.
