Knit Hello, a Simple Typeface for Knitting

Designer Rüdiger Schlömer has created a new typeface for beginning knitters called Knit Hello.

Knit Hello is a typeface for hand knitting. It was made for beginners: knitters and typographers who love type.

You may remember Schlömer from his Futura-based Knit Grotesk. And of course, the earliest bitmap letters weren’t found on a computer screen; blocky letters have been used in cross stitch and knitting for hundreds of years. (via colossal)

Definitely read that as Hello Knitty at first glance and am slightly sad it isnt the real name.
