Simply Knitting Issue 63 - on sale today!

The February issue of Simply Knitting is landing on shop shelves across the UK today! We've got 23 gorgous knits tucked between the covers and we're already thinking about Valentine's gifts for you to knit as well as lovely ways to treat yourself.

We've got three gorgeous women's tops in this issue, so you'll be able to find one to suit your style. Choose from the trendy cropped jacket on the cover, a smart cowl-neck jumper or an elegant silver tunic.

If you feel like indulging in a quicker project, try our slouchy socks or Fair Isle hot water bottle cover – or pick your favourite of the 11 patterns in our Quick & Easy Knits section!

Just because the holiday season is out of the way, doesn't mean we're ready to stop knitting for the ones we love. The 11 patterns in our Quick & Easy Knits section include super-sweet designs and some romantic knits for Valentine's Day. Knit a simple card for a friend or say 'I love you' with a pair of heart-motif socks. We've also got fun, quick gifts for the whole family, from dads to tots.

Carrying the romantic theme further, Alan Dart has designed a pretty pair of lovers for us this issue. Pierrot and Pierrette are absolutely charming with their matching outfits and wistful faces. They'd make a great gift for a teenage girl waiting for her first Valentine's card, a newly married couple or anyone with a romantic streak!

  • We test the best circular needles around.
  • Get kids crafting with help from Craft Club.
  • The story behind a knitted wedding cake...
And don't miss any of your usual favourites: we've got fab new yarns, great giveaways and loads of books, patterns and websites for you to try out!
