Book Picks

I must admit to being overly obsessed with books... especially knitting books.

2 books I just added to my already obese library:

The Sock Club by Charlene Schurch and Beth Parrott is a MUST have for sock knitters. The patterns are creative, challenging and absolutely to dye for :)

Anyone who knows me will tell you how crazy I am for fairisle/colorworks designs. The following book contains a multitude of woodland inspired projects such as hats, mittens and gloves. I fell in love with the front cover hat pattern which I plan on knitting soon. Click here to check out Colorwork Creations by Susan Anderson-Freed.

Socks, Socks and More Socks!

A few winter projects...

Quite the pair. The blue pair was knitted with 100% wool. The pattern, I took from the Favorite Socks book by Interweave Press and is called Merino Lace Socks (designed by Anne Woodbury. The design flows nicely down the heel which makes it perfect for clogs.

The other pair was knitted with Koigu kpppm. The pattern was taken from the same book and is called Waving Lace Socks (designed by Evelyn A. Clark).

The following pair displays a beautiful A symmetrical design. This particular design is called "kai-mei", named after a famous female physicist and can be found in Cookie A's Sock Innovation book.

In the works...

I'm currently working on this pair which pattern I took from Cookie A's Sock Innovation and is called "vilai". This pattern is both challenging and fun to knit.
