Granny McFlitter Stitches Up a Storm

Granny McFlitter Stitches Up a Storm

Can our favourite champion knitter use her speedy needles to turn a stormy beach holiday into a triumph?

Granny McFlitter is ready for some sun and surf! She hitches up her caravan and heads to the coast, but camping soon proves anything but relaxing when her tasty knitting attracts a troublesome billy goat.

Far worse is in store since that night there was chaos – tents tossed to the ground, the wind flinging fistfuls of leaves all around.

Wild weather wrecks the campground, and Granny needs an assistant to help stitch all the unhappy campers’ vacations together. And this is where Guzzle the goat can put his talents to good use.

With bouncing rhyme and exuberant illustrations from the award-winning Heather Haylock and Lael Chisholm, Granny McFlitter’s charming fifth adventure proves that even the wildest, stormiest vacation can be a triumph when you have knitting needles and a good angora jumper to hand.

As a child, Heather Haylock could often read a book while sitting on her horse or perched way up high in a tree. Now, Heather loves the challenge of knitting words into her own stories.

Thanks to all her research for the Granny McFlitter stories, Heather can now knit yarn into jumpers and other clever shapes. If you want to find her, try looking up. She may be reading, writing or knitting way up high in a tree.

Granny McFlitter Stitches Up a Storm releases on the 11th of February 2025.
