Cold hands may mean warm heart - but none of us want frozen digits. Cozy Gloves will be the answer for the whole family. This selection of fun, fast and practical finger-warmers transforms an essential item into an object of desire. The latest title in the Cozy series is packed with inspiring designs for every member of the family, from children's mittens to glamorous sparkling evening gloves and hard-wearing cabled patterns for the man in your life. Many knitters get quivering hands when attempting gloves, but this book guides anyone who has mastered the basics of knitting gently through the technique of knitting divisions in to three parts - frill or rib for wrist, wrist to knuckles and fingers and proves that it is nothing to be afraid of. AUTHOR: Many years ago Susette did a jewellery-design course at Harrow School of Art, but found she sold more knitwear designs than jewellery and has been knitting ever since. She runs knitting workshops organized through her website www.susetteknits.org.uk. And encourages her students to progress and develop their knitting skills, whether they are interested in adult or children's garments, bags or home furnishings. Susette knits by both hand and machine and creates wonderful, workable designs that are a joy to make. She has wide-ranging interests: she is a Liberal Democrat Councillor for the Childs Hill Ward of the London Borough of Barnet and a past Mayor. She has a BA and MA in Classical Civilisations from the Open University and has just completed a course in World Art and Artefacts at Birkbeck College, in conjunction with the British Museum.
