Knit the City: Building Blocks

Australian knitting designer Jake Henzler (Boy Knits World) has created a fun collection of knitted building blocks inspired by iconic cities around the world including London, Paris, Copenhagen, Sydney, Amsterdam, Prague and New York.

The designs are modular so they can be mix and matched to make your own unique buildings. For example, you can switch up the different styles of gables and windows and adjust the style of the buildings to create endless alternatives.

The buildings are knitted as separate blocks but they can be joined together to make blankets, throws and cushion covers as well as other accessories and homewares. There are guidelines for yarn amounts and the number of blocks needed to make three different sized projects for each city: a large blanket; and baby blanket and a cushion cover but you can use your knitted building blocks however you like – the world is your oyster!
