Nudinits At Home (Sarah Simi)

From the creator, director and producer of nudinits, the world’s first all-knitted animation, comes this brand-new naughty knitting book which is loaded with 19 cheeky knitting patterns for accessories and homewares. All patterns are inspired by the saucy saucy scenes and bare-bottomed characters from Sarah Simi’s much-loved animated Woolly Bush village. This book is not for the faint of heart, loaded with cheeky innuendo designed to make you laugh!

From tea cosies that celebrate Bernard’s marvellous marrow and Barbara’s gorgeous buns, to mischievous mug cosies to keep things hot, garden kneelers to stop you stiffening up, and even a wall hanging featuring a beautiful pair of (blue) tits, you can now bring a little nudinits friskiness into your own home. While some of these designs are beginner friendly, some are more complex, and there is a helpful hardness, I mean difficulty, rating for each pattern. 

If you need a helping hand, core techniques and information and a guide to key tools and materials can be found at the back of the book, however some basic experience with knitting is recommended. 

Containing plenty of stills from the popular animation throughout, this naughty guide will fully immerse you in the world of Woolly Bush. So whether you want to titivate your tableware, pack your sofas with some well-stuffed cushions, or get down and dirty in the garden, there’s something to enjoy getting your hands on…

About Sarah Simi

Sarah Simi is a knitter extraordinaire and the creator, director and producer of nudinits, the world’s first all-knitted animation. She learnt to knit from a young age, mainly Starsky cardigans, Clangers and even an outfit for her guinea pig that it sensibly refused to wear. After working as a stylist, writer and designer for many years, an idea formulated in Sarah’s mind for a knitted village full of eccentric British characters. At first the village was more of a traditional affair but after reading an article about free hiking (hiking in the nude) Sarah’s villagers lost their clothes and nudinits was born.

Sarah then collaborated with animator Ed Hartwell to make her first film, ‘Tickled Pink’, which went on to win a Best Comedy and a Best Animation award, and nudinits have never looked back. They’ve now become an online hit with further films, awards and lots of nudinit products to enjoy including knitting pattern books, calendars and cards. Together, Sarah and Ed now run Woolly Vision, a stop-motion animation company in London which specializes in making animation with wool, fabric and felt. Their films are multi-award winning and have been shown at film festivals all around the world. Sarah also loves making ceramic animal sculptures, collects panda Christmas ornaments and presents a podcast about the 1970s.
