Issue Six, Power and Steam, celebrates and captures Britain's industrial heritage, railway design and signage, and steam travel wanderlust. This 120‑page issue, sprinkled with charming puzzles, illustrations, articles, and patterns, will transport you straight to the era of steam power and the boom of the mechanized textile industry. Enjoy an issue full of nostalgia and six brand new knitting patterns from colorwork socks to cabled vests and more.
