“My aim is to provide a trail of knowledge and inspiration you can follow.”

Embroidery on Knits is an in-depth guide to contemporary stitching with and on wool, explaining every step of the process — from planning to finished project. It is a source of inspiration and knowledge for crafty beginners and savvy stitchers alike.

This book is an inspirational treat. It is the sort of book you want to curl up with and stroke the pages. The ideas are well presented and very achievable. Can't wait to get started. I would also like to mention the amazing service that I got from Beyond Measure. The book arrived meticulously wrapped in waxed brown paper in a style which (perhaps rather sadly(!)) made my heart sing. It brought back memories of wooden floored haberdasheries. Thrilled that this sort of service still exist.
Absolutely stunning book by Judit Gummlich. The explantions are clear, the designs are enchanting and the book itself is published to a very high standard with beautiful photography, high quality print and binding not to forget a very useful pull out template page at the end. A joy to own. Can't wait to start embroidering some knits.
Also the book was received from the seller lovingly packaged in kraft paper and washi tape to keep it in mint condition - like recieving a birthday present!
My daughter will love it and I will borrow it.
Prior to making my order for a book and Nurge embroidery hoop I had a query about the book I was purchasing (Embroidery on Knits) and can I say I received a very quick and prompt response that went over and beyond measure (boom boom) of my query. I have purchased products here before and have found they offer an exceptional, reliable and personable service and find their products compared to other providers to be of good value.
Such a beautiful book, so much inspiration and details , I've never done any embroidery but can't wait to try.

This beautiful ribbon arrived speedily & makes an appropriate & pretty trim for a seasonal children's story on my little theatre. Thank you.
This is my second purchase from Beyond Measure, expanding my range of colours. It's a lovely thread to work with, in a rainbow of colours. Promptly delivered with hand-written notes on the invoice, which adds a personal touch! Thank you, again
Amazing! Really easy to thread and do ‘what they say on the tin’ - they are sharp and I’ve used them on fine silk voile, woven cotton and even to quilt through layered fabric with equal success. Super happy!
I have a box of the 40m cards and like to refill it when I am running one low. I also buy the larger hanks for my favourite colours. They are excellent quality, sew beautifully in my sashiko work and the colours do not run when washed. They are the best.
I love pretty much anything published by Laine, they have outdone themselves with this issue however.
Immediately on flicking through I bookmarked three 'must knits' and really enjoyed the article on Satu Rämö too ( if you've not read her novels now is a very good time to start).
