Louisa Harding's stunning new selection of patterns featured in her book, "Little Cake", are truly orig inal. Featuring two new yarns, Thistle and Willow Tweed the patterns are ultra-feminine and take their inspiration from the Alice-in-Wonderland story and the countryside surrounding Louisa's home. 26 projects marry the idea of traditional with a twist, the simple but exquisitely embroidered beret  "Rakes Moss".

Attention to detail and fit are a trade mark of Louisa's work and the ability to alter the feel of a garment by changing a border edging or substituting colours produces unique garments to reflect your personal style.

You can't write an article about "Little Cake" without mentioning the extraordinary photography which tells a story throughout, making this not just a pattern book but a treasure trove for any knitter.
