Sue Stratford’s Knitted Aviary
Search Press Ltd (Verlag)
978-1-78221-640-7 (ISBN)
This delightful book from best-selling author and knitting designer Sue Stratford provides patterns for 21 charming birds for you to knit. Featuring beautifully clear colourwork charts that make patterns super-easy to follow, you'll be amazed at how quickly and easily you can create your own flock of characterful knitted birds. Whether you choose a seagull, puffin, flamingo, bullfinch or parakeet, your bird will take on a personality all of its own and no sooner will you finish one than you'll want to start on another little feathered friend to keep it company. As well as the birds themselves, there are ideas for how to display them, and at the end of the book are instructions for a hanging nest, a felt nest box, branches, flowers and leaves, in addition to all the templates you need to make them.
Sue Stratford is a successful knitting designer and bestselling author, having already published seven books with Search Press. Starting out as a yarn shop owner, she now concentrates on her design work, and there is always a new idea in her mind. Sue is inspired by colour and texture and loves working with natural fibres. She regularly exhibits at fibre and textile shows around the UK and teaches classes on a number of different techniques. Sue lives in Milton Keynes with her family and numerous animals.
