There's something timeless about a well-made Aran knit - the satisfying weight of the fabric, the rhythm of the cables, the sense that what you're making will still be worn and loved decades from now. King Cole's Aran Book 1, by Sue Batley-Kyle captures exactly that feeling.
Inspired by the rugged beauty of the Yorkshire Dales and the rich knitting traditions of the British Isles, Sue has brought together 32 patterns that honour classic Aran stitches while giving them shapes that are genuinely flattering and wearable today. Designed for the whole family, this is a book you'll return to season after season.
