New subscribers can receive the calendar when they subscribe through this special link, receiving 3 issues of Simply Knitting, plus the calendar, for only £19.99.

Here are just some of our favourites from this year’s calendar.

Simply Knitting 2027 calendar – knitted doll with skis

See you on the slopes!

January kicks off the calendar with a bang, with breathtaking attention to detail including the miniature mustard yellow cable knit jumper. The doll even features two tiny ski polls, complete with snow baskets at the end.

Make sure your January doll is wrapped up warmly, by completing the design with a bobble hat and ski goggles for safety.

Roses are red

Of course, what would a calendar be without an ode to Valentine’s Day? February’s doll is a sweet homage to all things romance.

Wearing a jumper with a heart detail, a pink bow hair accessory and a layered skirt, this doll will be a fun and achievable challenge for knitters.

Is it that time of year already?

It’s never too early to be thinking about Christmas, and if you’re wondering what December 2027 has in store, you’ll be delighted to see this doll’s marvellous festive outfit.

One of Father Christmas’ helpers has escaped from the North Pole and could be all yours, topped off with an elf’s hat and dainty belted jumper.

This superb calendar was designed by toy knitting designer Amanda Berry, also known as “fluffandfuzz”, in collaboration with Simply Knitting and Scheepjes. Amanda is an expert in toy design, from incredible farmyard animals to underwater creatures and garden beasts.
