By Weichien Chan Saskie Knits is a book created for those who love colourwork, bunnies, modular knitting and stash busting. Inside, you’ll find a collection of ten modular knitting patterns built from knitted squares and designed for versatility and adaptability. Whether you’re an experienced maker or new to knitting, these pieces invite you to play, customize, and make them your own. Saskie knits is also a love letter to my late dwarf soul bun, Saskatchewan. Woven between the stitches are reflections on love, loss, and our bond which inspired it all. It’s about holding on, letting go, and finding beauty in the act of making. What You’ll Discover: Ten modular designs you can adapt to your body and style Knitting patterns for knitters at beginner to intermediate level Garments, accessories, home decor modular knitting patterns Colourwork charts (bunnies and non-bunnies) to mix and match Pet loss and grief journey for those who have been through the same Arctic photography & inspiration offering a glimpse into summer in the arctic "This book is a deeply personal and special project for me. I wrote this during one of the hardest times. A year ago, I lost my soul bun, Saskatchewan. I struggled and lost my spark for designing. After taking some time to slow down and process everything, I read that writing helps with grief and so I tried putting my thoughts into paper. I decided to explore modular knitting construction, a way of designing that is different what I’m used to, while still incorporating my passion - colourwork and bunnies. And so, I wrote saskie knits. A book filled with patchwork colourwork designs, something completely unique from what you’ve seen from me. A book that encapsulates the grief of losing a soul pet. I hope that anyone going through the same loss knows they’re not alone. And I hope to keep saskie’s memory alive, one design at a time." Saskie knits is designed, written, printed exclusively in Canada on sustainable, recycled silk paper.
