Kids are ever-changing.  Whether it's their size or their style, growing kids require new clothes almost every year.  But there's no need to spend all that money at designer shops and stores...simply create your own kids clothes with some colorful yarn and a pair of your favorite knitting needles!

The knitted projects in Knitting Clothes Kids Love are designed with kids in mind.  Geared towards youngsters from six to twelve, these patterns are great for growing kids with ever-changing styles.  Broken down into categories, including Heads, Shoulders, Knees, Hands, and Toes (which include hats, scarves, leggings, mittens, and socks respectively) the patterns in this book are sure to please kids of all ages. 

Since several of the patterns in Knitting Clothes Kids Love include a wide variety of color combinations, author Kate Oates includes an awesome guide to reading knitting patterns at the beginning of the book, as well as detailed instructions as to what is meant by various charts and symbols...so knitters of all skill levels can create at least a few patterns in this awesome collection.

Each pattern in Knitting Clothes Kids Love includes a large full-color photograph of the finished project, as well as a detailed materials list and easy to follow instructions.  More complicated projects have full-color charts and step-by-step photos to make creating your project as easy as possible.

I love the striped Leggings pattern in Knitting Clothes Kids Love.  Full of color and amazing design, these striped leggings would be great for the fall and winter months to help add some color and fun to a grey day.  You can create your striped leggings in any color combination you'd like, so kids of all ages and styles can enjoy them!

Great for kids who love colorful accessories, Knitting Clothes Kids Love is a great way to create fun hats, socks, mittens, and scarves that kids are sure to appreciate.
