Knitty’s 2011 spring issue, with a review of the 10 Secrets of the LaidBack Knitters
“In a publishing climate that still wants to crank out knitting books that impossibly serve every need at an impossible pace, this gem of a book takes a deep breath and travels on its own path.” ~ knitty
Online & in stores May 10
Finally, I’m blogging. Well, sort of. I’m a good Twitterer, but an appalling blogger. Nonetheless, here I am because I want to tell you about my new book coming out May 10. Lisa Souza and I cooked up what we believe is a wonderful and exciting knitting book.
You can preorder the book at Amazon or purchase it at your local bookstore or knit shop. I’ll be adding more info and photos as the launch grows closer. Rather than blather on, here’s a preview of what’s to come:
Some stats… 28 Patterns by 21 Designers • Pattern levels from Beginner to Advanced • 9 Profiles • Lots of critters • A spectrum of yarns • 1 short fable • Socks, sweaters, scarves, home, toys, kids • knitting, crochet, spinning, lace, felting • Did I mention critters?

St. Martin's promo piece for the book.
I know, I’m way behind. Still doing Knit a Year, and I’ll post more pics soon. It’s great, great fun.
I wanted to note Bill’s latest book, Every Day Was Special. When Bill was fishing, every day really was special. He loved to fly fish more than just about anything in the world, with the exception of spending time with his kids and me. Well, usually me! Sometimes fishing won out.
Bill's newest fly fishing book. I'm so proud.
