I think I'm just obsessed with coziness right now - I'm working on three different knit and crochet blankets, making throw pillows for our couch, and hunting around for the perfect pair of slippers. I don't know if you've seen Knitting at Home yet, but it's perfect for fueling any Must Get Warm At Any Cost feelings you might be having this holiday season. Even when my kitchen sink is full of dirty party dishes and the laundry is out of control, this book allows me to escape into a world of snuggly throws, hot cups of tea, and afternoons curled up on the couch. |

Thanks! This contest is over! We would like to congratulate Stepanie B. (# 3264)... Have you ever seen a book and there’s only a couple of patterns in it that you would really like? Wouldn’t it be nice if you could just purchase just the one or two patterns? |
