Book Description

Fill your home with 30 contemporary hand-knitted designs by Melanie Porter.


All of the projects in Knitted Home are easy to make and will inject style and colour into your interiors. There are three colour schemes to choose from blues and greens in 'Cool Collection'; reds, oranges, and yellows in 'Hot Ideas'; and whites, creams, and greys in 'Pale Palette' so there is something for all tastes. You can start with smaller projects, such as the bolster pillow cover, flower vase cosy, or stripy clock cover, then move on to something a little larger, such as the rope knit basket, chunky knit rug, or covered footstool. With a comprehensive techniques section, you’ll discover how to use giant knitting needles and how to measure furniture for a knitted cover, as well as all the basics of knitting, so even beginners can try their hand at these fabulous ideas.

About the Author

About Melanie Porter
Melanie Porter is a graduate of Central Saint Martin's College in London. She spent 10 years working as a knitwear designer for a number of international fashion brands before turning her expertise to furniture in 2008. She creates one-off contemporary designs from antiques sourced at auctions and markets - each project is painstakingly stripped back to the frame, before being restored and/or reupholstered using traditional techniques, and then covered with a series of hand-knitted panels. Melanie's ability to create exquisite, textured fabrics which are individually knitted and felted for every project has drawn attention from clients and press all over the world. Her work is now sold at prestigious department store Lane Crawford in Hong Kong and lifestyle boutique Wolf & Badger in London. She is the author of Hand-Knit Your Home, also published by CICO Books.
