It's time to return to the magical, charming world of Cinthia Vallet's seamlessly knit woolly friends. This long awaited sequel to Mouche & Friends, Chez Myrtil: More Seamless Friends to Knit and Love introduces 12 new animals, each with a story to tell, and, of course, their adorable, tiny garments. You're invited to Chez Myrtil, come meet Myrtil the Bear and his lovely friends: Frankie the Fox, Merle the Crocodile, Merri the Mole, and more!
Cinthia’s toy-making approach is innovative and totally seamless. The animals are knitted with natural fibers and worked in the round, starting from the nose and knitting down to the feet — growing a toy rather than building it. Stitch by stitch you'll discover each animals personality and find yourself itching to bring another woolly friend to life.
The book is meant for knitters of all skill levels. Cinthia walks her readers through the techniques step-by-step with clear, illustrated tutorials, which makes knitting easy and enjoyable. She also shares her tips on knitting small circumferences, correcting loose stitches, attaching safety eyes, and embroidery techniques.
