Home: 18 Knittable Projects to Keep You Comfy by Pam Allen Quince & Co 2014


Home is a collection of 18 projects for keeping comfortable and warm at home. You’ll find patterns for cozy socks, slippers, and sweaters, a shawl that wraps around you like a favorite blanket, a soft afghan, pillows, and more. The patterns are straightforward knitting that beginners and advanced knitters alike will appreciate. Instructions are thorough and the techniques used, various cast ons and bind offs, seaming, etc., are spelled out in detail.


Highly recommended!

Giveaway! Leave a comment in the group. Go from link in my blog to Quince & Co. Tell me what you would knit first from the collection. Lookbook.

Listening/Watching

Hi Paula,
Thanks for the many hours of pleasure I have gotten from your podcast. I also wanted to let you know about my new audio podcast, Teaching Your Brain to Knit. Inspired by your Nature Notes, my co-host Catherine and I have a segment called Behind the Redwood Curtain, all about the North Coast of California where we live. We also talk about what we’re learning from our knitting, a knitting note, and what we called a Brainy thing -- something about the brain, learning, or teaching and how it relates to knitting (or crochet.) http://teachingyourbraintoknit.com/ We’re on itunes, Miro, Stitcher, Downcast and ipodder. The rss feed is here(http://teachingyourbraintoknit.libsyn.com/rss) and the show notes here at http://teachingyourbraintoknit.com/. If you think your listeners would be interested, we’d appreciate you letting them know about us.

Thanks,
Margaret aka Margaret924
Haste ye back!

I love Q & Co's new book! Of course I would start several projects at once, but I really love the Anna sweater. I would start that first, then Theo and Thea, then one of the slippers, or maybe both!!
