From beginner knitters to color experts you are sure to find great book ideas for your own personal knitting library.

Book reviews by

nn Budd’s book, Knitted Gifts, is a collection of absolutely irresistible projects by a host of talented designers. My experience with gift knitting books is that there are four or five projects that I want to knit which makes the book worth the money. But, I want to knit every single gift in this book and I can think of someone to give each gift to. Well, some of them would be for me but, really, I can find a home for everything! Let’s get to the knitting!

Your Cost $14.93 Save 32% In Knits from the North Sea you can feel the full force of Margaret’s knitting heritage and Carol’s contemporary style. Lots of hints and advice in the lesson section. Like Russian Grafting; their Provisional cast-on is one I haven’t seen before and I love the drawings showing how to pick up stitches along a side edge. Softcover.

It may seem like 12 sock patterns is not that interesting but what is, is the wide variety of styles using many techniques that make a unique pattern every time. What that means to me is that each pair of socks offers a mental challenge with its lessons. Softcover. 12 patterns—112 pages. 31210 Retail $22.99

Knitting accessories to have on hand for your tool bag Cable Knitting Needles

The technique for creating cabled sweaters is to move a set of stitches behind or in front of others to twist them around each other. These metal cable needles are designed to securely hold stitches out of the way while you move other stitches around them. The bulky needle (A) is perfect for the chunky yarns that are so popular. If you are using traditionally sized yarn, the center scoop needle (B) works well. The regular needle (C) hangs down taking up less room when you are working on socks or sleeves. A) 80578 Bulky Cable Needle Your Cost 99¢ B) 80580 Center Scoop Cable Needle Your Cost 99¢ C) 80579 Regular Cable Needle Your Cost 99¢

Knitting Yarn Swift

Hold your yarn hanks on this wooden swift while you wind them into balls. Clamps onto table and counter tops. Easy loading is possible if you start with the umbrella in the down position. Put the open loop of the hank over the swift and pull it lightly so the far side of the hank is against the center of the umbrella section and you are holding the hank out perpendicular to the swift. Then, use your free hand to slide up the umbrella clamp, opening the umbrella to the circumference of the hank. Secure the clamp in place and wind away. Measures approx. 26½” in diameter (82” circ) and 26” tall when open. This item may ship separately. 80083 Your Cost $64.99

Yarn Ball Winder

Transform hanks or skeins into compact center-pull balls that sit nicely while you knit. As with our Options™ needles, we interviewed knitters to find out what they would like best in a ball winder—what we found is that everyone is different. Some knitters prefer to hold their ball winder while some prefer to clamp it to a table, so we created a ball winder that could do both. Use the clamp for tables or connect the ergonomic handle to use when you want to hold it. Best when used in tandem with a yarn swift. 80583 Your Cost $19.99

Pill Remover

A natural side-effect of many super soft yarns is pilling. Save on your dry cleaning bill with this simple tool.

Sock Knitting Needle Holders

If you have ever been impaled by a sharp double-pointed needle, then you can appreciate the need for keeping yourself and your projects protected while they are still attached to the needles. These ingenious little paper board tubes will protect your DPNs and your project while still in progress. They extend to hold both the shortest and longest needles, completely encasing the needles to protect their tips as well. Protect your investment in DPNs with this clever device. Fits up to a set of five 8” US size 9 DPNs. Set includes two tubes. 80601 Your Cost $4.99

all the right equipment to block your finished knits, from socks to lace and everything in between Blocking Mats

Lace Blocking Wires

Simply slip the wire through the edges of your lace project and place pins along the inside of the wires to hold them in place while the lace dries. If you have scalloped edges you will want to slip the wire through the outer edges of your scallops to emphasize them. Follow the same rules as pin or string blocking by measuring the radius of your finished piece as you adjust the wires. Set comes with 15 (32½" long) straight wires, 20 nickel-plated T-pins and blocking instructions. All wires are stainless steel and rustproof. The first time you use your blocking wires, wipe them with a soft cloth to remove manufacturing residue. This item ships separately. 80589 Your Cost $19.99
