Not only is knitting this season’s trendiest hobby, but big knits are the height of winter fashion. How about giving your armchair its very own woolly sweater? – Aran Armchair cover, knitted from New Knits by Erika Knight.{photography by Lisa Cohen via Red Magazine}

i love the white knit aran armchair cover.
me too (the aran armchair in red magazine) it just looks the cosiest place in the world to sit right now : ) i’m trying to learn to knit this year so this is v inspiring for me xx
Vote for the aran armchair cover too!:-)
There’s not nearly enough knitwear sites around – find me more, please :)
i wish i could knit better!
What an incredible collage of warm, wooly and wonderful things! The arm chair cover is spectacular.
although i am not a fan of how the book is set up there are a few wonderful patterns in wenlan chia’s “twinkle’s big city knits”. i just finished knitting up the incredible skirt on size 17 needles (!) and three stitches to the inch. so much fun…now i might have to make something for my red arm chair. hmmmmm.
I think it’s time I trade in my crochet hook for a pair of knitting needles.
oh this armchair-pullover looks fantastic, has it got arms, too, to wrap it around you?? ;)
Great post!!! I wish wish wish i could knit!!
ohhh… how i would love to make a knitted chair cover!! sadly i think that it would not go well with the 2 cats :) this collage makes me feel so warm and cozy. xo
Add me to the list of people who love the chair cover…AND I’m looking for a new knitting project….looks like it might be a great way to recover Ikea’s oh so cheap Ektorp chair http://www.ikea.com/us/en/catalog/products/60100879… hmmmm…..
