Mini Pom: Happy Knits for Little Kids

Following the wonderfully successful beginner’s book, Knit How, and our pullover and sock compendiums, Ready Set Raglan and Ready Set Socks, we thought it was about time we let kids in on the action too!

A collection of 11 versatile knitting and crochet patterns for kids aged 0-10, Mini Pom reimagines classic grown-up patterns from the archives of Pom Pom for our tiny friends, as well as some new just-for-kids designs, all in the fun and modern style we’re known for. 

Each of these patterns has been chosen and designed with growing bodies and the way they move in mind. From Mini Woodwardia, our classic and versatile raglan pullover, to Mini Battenberg, a granny square cardigan inspired by the most fanciful of desserts, and Mini Skipworth, the perfect little mittens for colder days, these are patterns we know you’ll want to return to again and again!

Featuring designs by: LYDIA GLUCK // MEGHAN FERNANDES // SOPHIE HEATHSCOTT // FIONA ALICE // RACHEL COOPEY // GINA FAMA RÖCKENWAGNER // TOSHIYUKI SHIMADA // KIYOMI + SACHIKO BURGIN

We’ve also provided colouring pages for all the designs in the book, for kids (and adults!) to experiment with and make their own. And don’t forget that each copy comes with a free digital download so you can easily print these pages for lots more colour exploration!
