The man behind Guys Knit is signing copies of his book in Brighton this weekend

Nathan Taylor, the self-proclaimed Sockmatician whose knitting is known for its mathematical-themed designs, is heading to Churchill Square this Saturday (February 16).

From 3pm to 4pm, the genius with a needle and thread will be in WHSmith to sign copies of his book, Guys Knit, which is a beginner’s guide to knitting aimed primarily at men.

Discussing his book, Mr Taylor said: “I felt compelled to write this book not only because knitting is my passion, but also to challenge the perceptions of who knitters are and to break apart those dusty stereotypes.”
