Officially licensed with Sony Pictures Consumer Products and inspired by the hit series from STARZ based on Diana Gabaldon’s bestselling novels, Outlander Knitting allows fans to recreate rustic knits—both those worn on the show and other items imagined from the epic love story of Jamie Fraser and Claire Beauchamp Randall.
With twenty projects for apparel, accessories, and home décor that relate to specific episodes, now knitters of all skill levels can recreate their favorite Outlander knits. Knit the capelet cowl that Mrs. Fitz gives to Claire at Castle Leoch, warm your feet with Clan Mackenzie Boot Socks, swaddle your bairn with the Mo Chridhe Baby Blanket, and dress your Jamie in a warm waistcoat. From beginner-friendly chunky knits to more advanced Celtic cables, each project includes a clearly written pattern, gorgeous photography, and scenes from the set.
A love letter to the fans, Outlander Knitting will transport you back in time to the Scottish Highlands.
“We are very excited to partner with Clarkson Potter | Penguin Random House on Outlander Knitting. The book happens to be a passion project of mine because it not only rounds up and beautifully displays the unique pieces of knitwear seen on the show, but it also encourages fans to tap into their creativity to make their favorite Outlander-inspired knits that they can proudly say they created on their own,” said Jamie Stevens, EVP, Worldwide Consumer Products, Sony Pictures Entertainment. “With projects for beginners to advanced knitters, Outlander Knitting is sure to keep fans entertained when they are watching the show and even when they are not.”
