TOFT, summer, knit and crochet patterns, animal print

Here at TOFT HQ we are super excited to introduce to you our Summer 2021 launch.  We have taken a walk on the wild side, through the plains of Africa to bring to you some stylish and bang on trend animal print projects for TOFT’s fashion-led accessories range this summer. 

This animal print themed launch gives you six interchangeable charts Leopard, Tiger, Cheetah, Zebra, Giraffe and Snow Leopard.  These charts can be applied to almost every pattern in this collection, so pick your print and swap your colour palette around, have some fun! 

TOFT are also bringing you a brand new amigurumi crocheted animal , Andrea the Ocelot and some home accessories projects like the crocheted Salonga blanket and knitted Etosha Cushion, to give any room in your house that safari, animal print theme we are all craving this summer.  We think it is one of our most versatile and exciting design collections we have ever made.

We are including in this launch a bonus snake print pattern to add to your collection, again this too can be interchangeable for any of our summer 2021 collection crochet and knit projects. 

This animal print knit and crochet collection has been designed to be made in TOFT’S luxury British wool, so please do go across to our main page and take a look at our full colour spectrum,  Kerry Lord has made sure there are patterns to suit every age and ability.  We hope it inspires you as much as it did us. 

The TOFT team also got to indulge and incorporate another one of their shared passions into the summer launch this year with a trip to Oxford Botanic Gardens, and I think you’ll agree whilst hopping from glasshouse to glass house TOFT has definitely brought a bit of the rainforest and escapism that we are longing for onto the pages of the TOFT Quarterly summer 2021 magazine.

Did you know that our 2021 Summer Magazine is part of TOFT's subscriptions.  With a brand new collection released every quarter, never miss out on an issue - plus subscribers receive a digital bonus magazine with additional patterns.

As a treat and part of the release to help you navigate your way through these animal print led projects, Kerry Lord has decided to host a knit along on instagram for you, starting on Monday 7th June for the next two weeks.

So pop it in your diary, Kerry will take you through a step by step guide, from the beginning, on how to knit the Serengeti Hat, so get yourself a kit together of all that you will need, get that cup of tea brewing in the pot and lets all begin a week on Monday.  

It will be a great opportunity to brush up on your knitting technique and if you feel the need to have a little brush up on their colour work, but also a fantastic safe space for those new to knitting to know that all the knowledge they crave will be right there in-front of you at the push of a button…a big welcome from the community to our new knitters…We hope to see you there!
