We always love sitting down with a new issue of Amirisu. The patterns, photographs, and articles are always up our street, and issue 23 is no exception. This time, the patterns are inspired by cinema from around the world, so it’s not just inspiring us to knit — it’s also inspiring us to explore new films while we knit! Here are some of our favourite patterns from the latest issue.

This Toe-Up Socks with Afterthought Heel Pattern is a Loop favourite. We’ve offered it, as a free pattern, for the last five years and we can see that at least 423 of you have listed your projects on Ravelry! We thought it was time to refresh the pattern and make a new version in one of our favourite sock yarns, Madelintosh Twist Light.
