Debbie Bliss has firmly established herself as the most stylish and accessible children’s knitwear designer working today. In Special Knits for Babies, she returns with a lovely collection of clothing and accessories for newborns. Some designs are simple to make—their special quality lies in the softness of the knit, often a cashmere mix. Others are unique for their trimming—a scattering of beads, a velvet bow, an organza ribbon. Most of the designs require little knowledge of complicated techniques: a simple garter–stitch blanket is perfect for beginners and is given a touch of luxury with an edging of satin. For those who prefer more of a challenge, there is a sampler blanket or a cross–stitch embroidered gingham cardigan. With clear step–by–step instructions, simple charts, and charming photos, this is another irresistible collection from the foremost designer of knitwear for babies and children.
