Synopsis

Knitting is presented here as a calming, therapeutic pastime, paired with mindfulness techniques designed to help reduce stress. The book begins with essential skills, including knit and purl stitches, increasing, decreasing and simple colourwork, before moving into a selection of mindful makes.

Projects are arranged across five themed sections: quick and easy pieces for a fast lift, portable knitting for commutes and travel, group projects for sharing with friends, larger works for a steady rhythm, and ideas that introduce new skills through stitch patterns, colour or texture. Suitable for beginners and more experienced knitters, it offers a structured way to combine creativity with stress management.
