Publisher's Review
Welcome to the world of modern knitting!
Hand-knitted knitwear designer Choi Gwi-yeom's Forest Knits style


『Warm Hand-Knitted Knits from Forest Knits』 Author Gwi-Yeom Choi used to work as a product designer developing user-friendly services, and now uses that experience to create easy-to-understand knitting patterns for anyone.
We have a mission to help everyone find the perfect, comfortable knitwear, so we prioritize custom sizing.
This book also offers up to nine sizes from XS to 5XL, broadening the range of choices for knitters.

Modern knitting is a modern knitting style that is simple and easy.
Artist Choi Gwi-yeom pursues modern knitting methods and is dedicated to creating easy-to-understand and quick knitting methods.
Many people generally think that knitting with large needles is difficult, but in fact, if you learn the basic techniques, you can easily create beautiful pieces with large needles.
Often, unfamiliar knitting terms that appear in knitting instructions can be overwhelming and cause you to back down, but you don't have to.
If you carefully read the various basic techniques introduced in Part 2 of this book, "Basics of Knitting with Large Needles," the instructions will be easier to follow.

Two works in one design
Choose the design you want and the style you want.


In Part 3 of 『Warm Hand Knitting with Forest Knits』, we introduce how to make two styles of knits with one design pattern, such as cardigan & sweater, sweater & vest, and cardigan & vest.
This is a versatile idea that was conceived by an artist who felt regretful about only being able to create one style with one design.
If you follow the main instructions from beginning to end, you will create a main knit, and if you follow the application instructions in the middle, you will create a new style, an applied knit.
It provides application instructions for each step, so it is not difficult to follow the overall flow.
If you follow the detailed and friendly instructions from Soopnitz, you will soon be able to make both the main and applied knit versions with your own hands.

The basic design of the Everlast cardigan & vest that you often reach for, the lovely Gemma sweater & slipover with a twisted pattern, the simple and rustic charm of the Column sweater & cardigan, the Adore rib sweater & cardigan with the broken rib stitch that many knitters consistently look for, the feminine yet cute ponytail cardigan & sweater, the timeless sweater & cardigan that never goes out of style, and the Dandelion cardigan & vest covered in a pattern reminiscent of dandelions.
In Part 3, you can see 14 works with such emotional designs.

From special knits to various knit accessories


For those who are new to knitting, knitwear pieces like sweaters, cardigans, and vests can feel like a daunting mountain to climb.
Even if you diligently learn the basic techniques in Part 2, you'll inevitably get scared when you actually try to get started.
For these beginner knitters, the author has prepared a gift.
This is the full video of the first cardigan.
If you scan the QR code in this book, you can watch a video of every step of the first cardigan, from the stitching to the finishing touches.
Even if you have no experience knitting a cardigan, watching the entire video and seeing the entire process of making a cardigan will make the process much easier.
In addition, new techniques such as the twist stitch, Kitchener stitch, and crochet chain stitch that appear in the text can be viewed through reference videos via QR code, making this a valuable knitting book that will answer all the questions of beginner knitters.

Part 4 features 11 pieces, including the First Cardigan, which provides a full video, the Verona Sweater, which is lightweight and soft to the touch, the Nerdy Polo Tee inspired by engineering students, the Spring Tee with a simple design, the practical Mancheropi Hoodie with a hood, the Starlight Scarf, which is great to wrap around in chilly weather, the Turtleneck Warmer, which is easy to wear on cold winter days, the Textured Trail Hat, the Crochet Look Bag using a Crochet Hook, the Terra Socks with a Country Road Romance, and Anne's Room Shoes, which are worn as slippers indoors.

Stay warm this winter with our round wool.

On cold winter days, with more time spent at home, many people wonder what to do to pass the time.
If you're looking for a hand-knitting book with friendly explanations and designs you won't tire of, I recommend "Warm Hand-Knitting by Forest Knits."
This book will be your friend and give you a healing time while you touch the soft yarn in the warmth of your home.
Let's spend this winter warmly knitting the knitwear we always look for in winter, spring, and fall, one stitch at a time, with our own hands.
